I used to want to do voice overs for American cartoons, but now I think the Indian animation industry needs me more. Have you seen the animated films about Krishna or Hanuman, etc? Or more importantly, have you heard them? "Heeyer I am, mother. I waas eeating butt-ter behind the pautts."
I am appalled each time I hear the dubbing; and by not volunteering my services, I think I'm ignoring the horrific future of the nation's children who will grow up speaking like this.
But let's do a quick reality check. The last time I said "Take the left at the T-junction", the response was "Dedden left?" (dead-end left)
So let me accept that my efforts would be a mere drop in the mighty ocean. And after all, it's not how a person speaks, but what he/she says that is important. (HMPH!)
