In response to Shah Rukh Khan’s tweet, Shaan took to social media requesting him to not destroy an iconic film like The Lion King with Hindi dubbing. And also expressed his thoughts the SRK could have at least changed his vocal expression for the iconic character.
Shaan wrote, “Pls don’t destroy an iconic film with Hindi dub… no difference in Shahrukh’s voice it is like any other V/O he does for his films. At least change your voice expression for a lions dub”.

James Earl Jones must be laughing.. what Shahrukh failed to understand if that the characters in the film are sketched according to the dubbing artists facial expressions .. if you see simba he resembles Matthew brodrick

Seems like Shaan has no idea that the dubbing for the cub as Simba is done by SRK’s son Aryan Khan, who amazingly voiced just like his father.
The Khuda Kay Liye star had expressed earlier that SRK has lost confidence and passion for acting.
He tweeted saying, “When the actor loses confidence and his passion to show his craft, that’s the answer you get. The hunger should never die. Follow all the great actors, what they did after they became greats. They challenged themselves with what they wanted to do. The role comes from inside.”
