After the emotionally demanding role in Manikarnika: The Queen Of Jhansi, Judgementall Hai Kya, a thriller with shades of dark humour, serves as a change of pace for Kangana Ranaut. While the trailer sees Rajkummar Rao and Ranaut's characters engage in a battle of wits, the actor says slipping into the part of Bobby, a regional voice-over artiste, was far from easy. In a bid to essay her role to perfection, she picked up Bhojpuri dialect under the supervision of director Prakash Kovelamudi.

"This is the first time that I'm playing a VO artist. In the film, my character is dubbing for a Bhojpuri movie and a few other South Indian films. That sequence leads to a lot of humour. Initially, I was struggling with the part. Prakash then directed me to [diction experts] who guided me with exercises; I had to do tongue and throat exercises to achieve the right pitch and diction. I was required to alter my accent and practise voice modulation," says the actor, adding that she dedicated two months to her prep before the Ekta Kapoor production went on floors last May.
