About Voice Acting
My Journey with Voices
I’m Arun Hallikeri, a Hubballi huduga (boy from Hubli) with a huchchu (craze) for cinema and voices. From childhood, I was hooked on legends like Dr. Rajkumar and Shankar Nag. That love turned into voice acting, not just for fun, but as something I take seriously. Winning the Karnataka Kala Ratna award was a big deal for me, but honestly, nothing beats the thrill of bringing a character to life.
What I Do Best
- Dhwani anukarane (voice imitation) is my main game. I can mimic 21+ famous Kannada actors, from Dr. Rajkumar to Shivarajkumar, plus a bunch of animal and bird sounds for that extra twist.
- I help with dubbing for films, web series, and short films that need specific Kannada character voices.
- If you want your social media reels or stage event to stand out, I can jump in with something unique.
Beyond Mimicry
My voice isn’t just about copying. I do narration and voice-overs too -
- Spiritual and educational content in simple Kannada, like Bhagavad Gita shlokas or Mahabharata stories.
- Tributes, travel vlogs, and even social messages. Whatever the mood, I’ll match it.
Uttara Karnataka Flavour
Need that real Hubli-Dharwad touch? I speak in the authentic uttara karnataka dialect, perfect for projects needing a true local vibe.
I’m based in Hubli but work remotely with folks across Karnataka and outside. I put heart into every project, big or small.

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!
