I try to rediscover myself every time I”m on a set: Gauhar Khan

TIL Desk Bollywood/ Gauhar Khan is in awe of filmmaker Srijit Mukherji, whose new Bengali film “Gumnaami” opened on October 2. Gauhar has dubbed the Hindi dialogues for a character in the film.

Talking about dubbing for “Gumnaami”, Gauhar said: “My character is the wife of the protagonist. It”s a political and historical subject. This morning I was reading some amazing reviews of the film. I feel dubbing is 70 per cent of acting, and if you don”t do it properly you can really spoil it for an actor. So, it”s a big responsibility.”

The period drama “Gumnaami” deals with the three theories behind Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose”s death. The first being the plane crash theory, the second being the theory that he died in Russia, and the third theory being that he came back to India and died as Gumnaami Baba. The film mainly looks at the Mukherjee commission proceedings, where all these theories were discussed, debated and questioned.
