Titled Girmit in Kannada, the film’s title will be Pakka Mass in Hindi and Telugu, and Podi Mass in Tamil and Malayalam. According to the latest reports, the makers are planning to release its English dubbed version as well.
The film will have about 280 child artistes playing different roles and provide a unique experience for movie buffs. Also, the child artistes will have a strong resemblance to the stars who will do the voiceover for their character. This will be a memorable experience for the audiences watching the film.
Reports indicate that top actors in Sandalwood will be doing the voiceovers for this film and the list includes Yash, Radhika Pandit, Sudha Belawadi, Rangayana Raghu, Achyuth Kumar, Tara, Petrol Prasanna, Sadhu Kokila and others. An interesting fact about Girmit is that Puneeth Rajkumar will be singing a song for the album.
The director has picked leading actors to do the voiceovers to add to the film’s popularity and explaining about this, Ravi Basrur told TNIE, “For example, we have Ashlesh Raj, who plays the lead in Girmit, who wants to look and feel like Yash, and we have managed to have the actor’s voice.”
For the English version of Girmit, the director has paid special attention and roped in a new team to render voices for the tracks.
The film is produced by NS Rajkumar and Ravi Basrur under the banners Omkar Movies and Ravi Basrur Movies. Ravi is also in charge of the music, sound design and screenplay, and his brother, Sachin Basrur, is cranking the camera.
Ravi Basrur is a well-known music composer in Sandalwood and made his debut as a director in 2014 with Gargar Mandala. Adarsh and Shemitha played the lead roles in this flick with Omguru, Vijay Basrur, Uday Basrur, Satish Basrur and Raghu Pandeshwar in supporting roles.
