Rajesh Khattar elaborates on his experience on preparing for Raktdeva in his animated series, Baahubali: Crown of Blood

There are many events and stories in the world of Baahubali and Mahishmati that are unheard, unseen and unwitnessed. Disney + Hotstar and Graphic India recently launched animated series of one of India’s fan favorite film franchise, Hotstar Specials’ ‘Baahubali: Crown of Blood’, a story where Baahubali and Bhallaladeva will join hands to protect the great kingdom of Mahishmati and the throne against its greatest threat, the mysterious warlord, Raktadeva.

A Graphic India and Arka Mediaworks production, Baahubali: Crown of Blood is  produced by visionary S.S. Rajamouli, Sharad Devarajan &  Shobu Yarlagadda, directed and produced by  Jeevan J. Kang & Navin John.

In the animation realm, it's the voice over artists that bring the characters to life. To intrigue the audiences and hold their attention is indeed challenging and voice over artists go through immense preparation. Rajesh Khattar spills the beans on his preps to giving his voice for the strong and powerful  Raktadeva.

Talking about this, Rajesh Khattar said, “Baahubali series is already loved by millions, the biggest thing in my mind was to make the character not only acceptable but stand out amongst established & loved characters in the series, also he being the main negative force had to sound powerful. But, Aapko powerful ke liye chillane ki zaroorat nahi hoti hai, if you have an all-powerful character to portray, usme jitna zyaada therav hota hai, woh utna zyaada powerful sound karta hai. The story is already creating a background about the character. I, am eagerly waiting for the audience’s reaction & their feedback as they are the ultimate judge’s.”
