Anees Bazmee Reveals Katrina Kaif's Dubbing in Welcome

Director Anees Bazmee revealed that Katrina Kaif's voice was dubbed in the 2007 film Welcome due to her unclear diction at the time, despite her previous claims of never having her voice modified. Bazmee noted that while they considered giving her character a backstory to explain the dubbing, they ultimately chose to use a voice artist instead. By the time of Singh Is Kinng in 2008, Katrina was able to dub for herself, demonstrating her dedication to improving her Hindi skills. Katrina had previously rejected the notion of anyone dubbing for her, attributing her success to hard work and her efforts to learn the Devnagri script early in her career. This contradiction has sparked discussions about the challenges faced by actors in the Hindi film industry and the importance of language proficiency. Bazmee's insights underscore the evolution of Kaif's career from her early struggles to her current status as a leading actress in Bollywood.
