Tamil dubbing, shaped for your audience

Tamil-speaking audiences watch a great deal of dubbed cinema, and they know at once when a dub sounds wrong.

  • Spoken Tamil, not written Tamil

    Tamil films use a spoken Tamil very different from the written language. A dub in formal written Tamil sounds like a news bulletin.

    Spelo: The script is written in the conversational Tamil of dubbed releases, not the written standard.

  • நீங்க or நீ

    Respect and closeness live in every sentence. The wrong form makes a son sound cold to his mother, or a villain sound polite.

    Spelo: Before the dub, Spelo decides how each pair of characters addresses each other, and keeps it.

  • English and Hindi sources

    South Indian releases are dubbed from Hollywood English and from Hindi films, each with its own idioms to carry across.

    Spelo: The same process dubs Hollywood English and Hindi films into Tamil.

  • Names and English words

    Decide once which names, brands and English words stay as they are, and keep it for the whole film.

    Spelo: Names, brands and English words are settled in the brief and kept for the whole film. Your reviewers can still change any line.
