Sai Pallavi has always been extremely particular about dubbing for her own roles. From Malayalam to Telugu and Tamil cinema, the actress made it a point to use her own voice even in films that demanded difficult slang or dialect work. In fact, she reportedly spent months perfecting the Telangana accent for Fidaa instead of opting for a dubbing artist.

But that streak may finally face a break with Ramayana. Sai Pallavi is playing Sita in Nitesh Tiwari’s ambitious mythological epic opposite Ranbir Kapoor, and industry gossip now suggests the makers are reconsidering whether she should dub for the Hindi version herself.

The discussion reportedly began after her Hindi debut Ek Din struggled at the box office. While the film itself received a muted response, a section of social media conversations also focused on Sai Pallavi’s Hindi pronunciation and noticeable South Indian accent.

Given the scale and sensitivity surrounding Ramayana, rumors suggest the team wants a more neutral Hindi voice for Sita. If the rumors turn out to be true, Ramayana could become the first major film to break one of Sai Pallavi’s most admired habits as a performer. Already, Ek Din broke her streak to deliver big blockbusters on debut and it seems to be hurting her habit, too.
