Indian customers will be able to get the actor’s iconic baritone voice on Alexa by buying the Amitabh Bachchan voice experience. Although, this feature will be available sometime 2021. According to the actor himself, “Technology has always given me an opportunity to adapt to new forms. Be it in movies, TV shows, podcasts, and now, I am excited to create this voice experience in partnership with Amazon and Alexa. With voice technology, we are building something to engage more effectively with my audience and well-wishers.”

Amazon will be adding iconic dialogues from Amitabh Bachchan’s famous movies like Shehenshah. Furthermore, the voice experience will also include other features like jokers, the current weather, shayaris, motivational quotes, advice, and more. After its launch next year, customers will also be able to invoke the voice experience by interacting with Alexa. They will be greeted by the superstar’s voice which will respond to some of the most popular requests.
