Arun Hallikeri

I am a mimicry artist and actor from Hubli, performing the voices of over 20 Kannada cinema legends. My passion is to bring this energy to live events, TV shows, and voice-over projects.

Receiving the 'Karnataka Kala Ratna' award was a very humbling experience. To be recognized for my contribution to art and culture by the Vishwa Darshan newspaper, and to receive the award from former High Court judge Arali Nagaraj Sir, was an honor I will never forget.

Meeting the legendary Hattrick Hero, Dr. Shivarajkumar sir, was an unforgettable day. He was so humble and spent time encouraging me. Moments like these inspire me to work even harder in my acting journey.

I was speechless to see that my mimicry performance video on TV9 Kannada's YouTube channel reached over 2.2 million views. It makes me feel so happy and grateful that so many people have seen and appreciated my talent. Thank you all for your love and support.

My Story

Namaskara! Naanu Arun Hallikeri, Hubli huduga. Krishna vande jagadguru antha heloke tumba ishta (I love to say 'I bow to Krishna, guru of the world'). From childhood, I had huchchu for acting, listening to Dheerendra Gopal sir, Shankar Nag sir’s voices nonstop. One day, I thought, 'Naa yaake maadabardu?' and started my mimicry journey. I’ve acted, directed, even reached film festivals. Colors Kannada shows, short films, all thanks to amma-appa’s support. Dayavittu, nimma preeti, support heege irali!

My Work

Special for North Karnataka - As a Hubli boy, I’m always looking for chances on Zee Kannada, Udaya TV, and more. Dayavittu belasi, harisi.
