Alibaba gets John Abraham’s voice

After having tested many foreign voices, Alibaba gets to speak the desi language, courtesy John Abraham. Which only means that the lead ‘hero’ of the much awaited animated film Alibaba and the 40 Thieves will have John Abraham’s voice. The film is directed by Soumitra Ranade of Jajantaram Mamantram fame.
Speaking to Bollywood Hungama, Soumitra said, “We have John Abraham lending his voice for Alibaba, while Saurabh Shukla, Raza Murad, and Mukesh Tiwary do for other characters.”
Alibaba and the 40 Thieves is a story based on a boy called Chinku, who lives in Mumbai and is trans-migrated into Arabian Night’s tale. “The music of the film is given by a group called Three Brothers & a Violin. It’s expected to release by 2009,” added Soumitra.
It will be interesting to see how John’s voice sounds over Alibaba because he was among those actors whose debut films were dubbed by someone else. Yes, John’s voice was dubbed by a dubbing artist in his filmJism.
