Actor Taaha Shah, who plays a food stall owner in Ranchi Diaries, recorded his dialogues and heard them more than a 100 times to get the accent right.
As a part of his role preparation, Shah went to Ranchi before the first schedule to get the dialect and mannerisms right as his character Pinku is based in Ranchi.
Shah said: “I recorded dialogues in Sattwik’s [director Sattwik Mohanty’s] voice and heard them over a 100 times to get the tone, accent and pitch right.
"I went to chowmein [noodle] stalls in Ranchi for a week and saw how those vendors functioned, how they interacted with customers and made chowmein. It was fascinating and a completely new experience for me.”
The actor has appeared in films such as Luv Ka The End, Gippi and Baar Baar Dekho.
He says that he is happy that he experimented in Ranchi Diaries, produced by actor Anupam Kher.
“My character Pinku is a small-town rugged boy. In my past films, audiences have seen me playing the character of a rich guy or as a chocolate hero, but this is the first time that I am playing an out-and-out desi boy who has a chowmein stall,” Shah said.
The film is set to release on October 13.
