Rani Mukerji on 'Ghulam' voice dubbing: Karan Johar saved my voice in 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'

  • Rani Mukerji revealed her voice was dubbed in the 1998 film "Ghulam," a decision made by Vikram Bhatt, Mukesh Bhatt, and Aamir Khan.
  • Aamir Khan, acting as the 'bad cop,' explained to Rani that her voice wasn't considered apt for the character, citing Sridevi's dubbed roles as an example.
  • Rani was initially upset but accepted the decision as a team player for the film's best interest.
  • Filmmaker Karan Johar insisted Rani retain her own voice for "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai," which released the same year, after learning about the "Ghulam" dubbing.
  • Rani's parents initially wanted her to marry young, but destiny led her to acting, with her mother encouraging her debut in "Raja Ki Aayegi Baaraat" to help the family's financial situation.

Why It Matters: Rani Mukerji recounts the initial disappointment of her voice being dubbed in 'Ghulam' and credits Karan Johar for championing her natural voice in 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai'.
