In 2005, when a 13-year-old was offered a job to dub for a classic cartoon show that used to air in Japan, she didn’t think much of it. “It was screened in Japan in the late 1970s, and India was watching the same show in 2005. The quality of the clips was not great; I didn’t think people would like it,” recalls voice artiste Sonal Kaushal. Nearly 20 years later, the show remains a favourite among not only the current generation of children but even adults who have grown up watching it. “Doraemon stayed with people for its visuals, storytelling, characters, dialogues…” agrees Kaushal, the dubbing artiste who gave the 22nd century robot its first voice in Hindi.
In an episode of her new podcast, The Motor Mouth Show, she sits across Meghana Erande, a veteran voice artiste, with over 35 years of experience in the industry, and the latest voice for Doraemon. “We have in this episode the first [herself] and the last voice [Erande] of Doraemon,” Kaushal introduces Erande, who is also the voice behind Ninja Hattori, Noddy, Officer Jenny in Pokémon, Wednesday in Addams Family and over 50 other famous cartoon shows and movies. Other guests include voice artiste Sanket Mhatre, Bollywood mimicry artiste Sumedh Shinde, YouTubers Mithilesh Patankar and Urmila Lawekar, and voice artiste for Nobita — Simran Kaur.
