Bhappi Lahiri has his sights set on Hollywood with the upcoming Hollywood musical film Moana. Lahiri is now back with Shona. Following the tremendous success of Vishal Bhardwaj and Gulzar’s reprisal of Jungle Jungle Baat Chali Hai and the Hindi localised version of Bare Necessities featuring Vishal Dadlani, Disney is all set to localise its forthcoming film Moana and has collaborated with Lahiri to voice the dialogues and sing for the character of Tamatoa, a giant crab with a fondness for shiny treasures found which he hoards.
Speaking of this collaboration, Lahiri said, “My family and I have been big fans of Disney. From its characters to its music, it has always been iconic. It’s a great pleasure to associate with Moana. I am always looking forward to doing new things. This is the first time I am dubbing for an animated character and I had lot of fun doing that. The character that I play is very similar to my own personality. I am hoping that people will enjoy this avatar of mine and shower their love on me like they have always done. It’s truly a ‘golden’ memory.”
Moana stars Auli’i Cravalho and Dwayne Johnson. The film releases in India on December 2.
