After Baahubali, I realised the power of post-production: Sharad Kelkar

The actor who lent his voice for Prabhas' character in the Hindi versions of the Baahubali series says the film made him realise the importanceh

Actor Sharad Kelkar, who lent his voice for actor Prabhas' character in Hindi version of the blockbuster Baahubali: The Beginning, and the sequel Baahubali 2: The Conclusion, says the film made him realise the importance and power of post-production.

"For a large part of my career I knew the power of only three words - start, camera, action...after 'Baahubali' I realise the power of fourth word - start, camera, action, post-production," said Sharad at the International Animation and VfX Awards, 24FPS Awards.

"Initially, when I was shooting for movies such as Baahubali, I used to wonder how can I modulate voice and tone by looking at actors delivering dialogues in front of a green screen. It was when we saw the first cut of the film that I realized the power of VFX. It brought life to the character, the story and is a living character itself," he added.

The awards ceremony was held where Sharad received an award for his versatile performance.

Sharad has dubbed in Hindi for a number of Hollywood films which include Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Guardians of the Galaxy, Mad Max: Fury Road, Exodus: Gods and Kings, and X-Men: Apocalypse.
