/> He recently gave voice to the eco-friendly Oscar-winning rage of a film. And now the makers of The March Of The Penguins want to re-release the film with the Bachchan baritone worldwide.

Confirms the Big B, "My voice for the film March of the Penguins has been a most wondrous and fruitful experience. Specially since the first voice over for that was done by the Hollywood luminary Morgan Freeman in English. I now hear that they want to re -release the film world -wide and have expressed a desire to go with my voice in the English version. I feel honoured"

The Big B loves being present in films only through his voice, Swami being the most recent example.

"Yes the experience of doing voice- overs is wonderful. My first -ever film -connected credit title was for the voice -over in Mrinal Da's film Bhuvan Shome, then several followed."

The Big B feels blessed to have had these opportunities. "Several films, documentaries where I have contributed my voice are forgotten now. But they are a sizeable number. The most rewarding voice-overs have been the son et lumiere renditions for some prestigious and important national monuments for the Government of India..

Khajuraho, Golconda Fort, Gwalior Fort, Tirupati, presentation for the Punjab Museum under construction, several religious institutions and have just confirmed my involvement for the son et lumiere at Ajmer Fort in Jaipur for the Rajasthan Government. I will be taking this up by the end of the month."

The Big B has also done the voice-over in Satyajit Ray's Shatranj Ke Khaladi. "I regret not getting an opportunity to work with the legend as an actor. But just a mention as a voice -over in his film is a moment of great pride for me.

Also artistically, my association for the Rabindranath album recently and in another ballet by Tanushree Shankar has been extremely rewarding."
