'Raam' producer Audithya Babu says Priyamani speaks in Kannada perfectly, but they could not use her voice because of the needs of the character. I cannot force them to use my voice because ultimately it is the director or producer's discretion to use voices that suit the characters," said Priyamani. "It is now up to the film directors to use my voice or not. But many top Hindi actresses like Rani Mukerji are dubbing in their own voices despite having a screechy voice like me," she said.
