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

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.
