/> When Lisa Ray made her Bollywood debut in Vikram Bhatt's Qasoor she spoke on screen in Divya Dutta's voice. Not too many people know the scenestealer Divya Dutta has a hidden talent. She's a terrific mimic.

The ability to copy anyone at the drop of a hat held Divya in good stead in her new film The Last Lear where she has completely transformed her speaking voice.

"It was amazing!" says director Rituprano Ghosh. "In all my years I've only come across actresses whose voice needed serious modulation help from the outside. But Divya actually changed her speaking voice to suit the character of the downmarker nurse she plays in the film.

At first I was skeptical about. I though she's end up sounding like a parody of the character. But Divya held the completely new pitch in her voice in place for the full movie. Amazing!"

Laughs Divya, "Rituji wanted me to sound different. He didn't want Divya to sound like Divya. I was asked to modulate my voice accent and diction to sound like my character. When I tried a new voice Rituji loved it.

I'm glad we tried something different through the voice. It adds a new dimension to the character. The voice changeover has made all the difference. Audiences will recognize and identify with the character immediately. "

As for dubbing for Lisa Ray in her first film Qasoor Divya says, "I never wanted to do it. But the Bhatts insisted. The funniest thing was, I had a small part in Qasoor and my voice had to be dubbed by someone else since Lisa was speaking in my voice. "
