RRR would not have Alia Bhatt reciting her own Telugu lines

SS. Rajamouli is all set to make magic happen on the big screen, yet again with the magnum opus of the year, RRR. After multiple postponements due to the COVID-19 pandemic, RRR has finally set a release date and will hit theatres on March 25, 2022. SS Rajamouli's RRR, hailed as one of the year's most anticipated films, has generated a lot of hype on social media ahead of its release.

Bollywood actress, Alia Bhatt who is currently basking in the success of her latest flick Gangubai Kathiawadi (2022), will be seen making her Telugu debut with RRR. Fans can’t keep calm to see her in a Telugu role alongside Tollywood stars Jr. NTR and Ram Charan. However, fans might be disappointed knowing that she is not going to speak her own Telugu lines in the film.

Alia Bhatt learnt Telugu for the film, as reported by Bollywood Hungama, however the creators decided not to use her original voice in the Telugu version of RRR. In addition, a source informed the portal, "Alia worked hard on learning Telugu from scratch for RRR. And Rajamouli was very keen to keep her original voice, since a dubbed voice takes away from the original performance. However, finally it was felt that it was better to dub her voice as her Telugu accent was incorrect."

“Yes, I did get a coach to learn Telugu from scratch and I did learn the language, especially for my role in RRR. But I don’t know if they are keeping my voice. If they aren’t, it’s because the emotion of the moment in the scenes must not be compromised by the spoken lines,” said Alia when asked about her Telugu lines. She added, “I did RRR only for the pleasure of working with Rajamouli Sir. The length of the role is not relevant."

RRR is set to hit the theatres on 25th March 2022. The film also stars Ajay Devgn, Shriya Saran, Samuthirakani, Alison Doody, and Ray Stevenson in crucial roles.
