In the vast universe of Disney Star, where magic meets meticulous craftsmanship, there's a team that ensures every character speaks the right language and resonates with the right emotion. And guess what? I have the privilege of leading that team! I'm Ravindran, and my journey at Disney Star spans over 17 years. My story isn't just about the work I do; it's about the passion, creativity, and dedication that our entire team brings to the table every single day. Our mission? To ensure Disney characters maintain their integrity and charm across different languages and cultures. It's far more than just dubbing; it's about preserving the director's vision and the character's essence in every localized version. From Disney Pixar to Marvel, Star Wars to Disney Animation, our team handles it all with flair. I also worked on creating local animated shows for Disney Kids Network India, ranging from anthropomorphic stories of the soil like Simple Samosa and Bollywood-inspired parodies like Gaju Bhai to chase comedies like Bunty aur Billi and Eena Meena Dika. These shows did more than just entertain; they struck a chord with local audiences. One of my proudest moments? Rewriting the scripts for Aladdin and the Genie for the Hindi adaptation of Disney's Aladdin musical at the NCPA in Mumbai. Fueled by passion, I tackled the challenge, leading to packed theatres and rave reviews. Another highlight was localizing The Jungle Book for Indian audiences. With stars like Priyanka Chopra and Irrfan Khan, the Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu versions were a roaring success, setting a new benchmark in dubbing. I owe much of my success to Disney's collaborative and respectful culture. Even in our super creative environment, respecting boundaries and each team's expertise is key. This approach lets every department shine and contribute to our collective magic. I believe passion is the key to success. Without it, creativity and excellence are impossible. I encourage everyone to embrace experimentation. Let's keep trying new things and pushing boundaries together! #LifeAtDisneyStar

Meet Prashant Khanna, who works in sports production at Disney Star. His role blends field operations, sports production, design, studio management, and R&D through STAR Labs. Prashant's career at Disney Star spans two significant periods. He first joined from 2002 to 2007, starting as a contractual employee fetching and delivering fan mail for shows like Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi and Kahaani Ghar Ghar Kii. It might sound surprising, but Prashant eagerly awaited each new episode, as it made crafting the perfect fan responses easier. Upon his return in 2017, Prashant found himself in a larger organization. Despite the changes, the core values of innovation and pushing boundaries remained. In 2020, Prashant and his team tackled the monumental task of bringing IPL back on air amid COVID-19. With global sports halted, they committed fully and passionately. Prashant was instrumental in creating COVID guidelines and biosecure bubbles, ensuring safety in Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Mumbai. Seeing the first ball go on-air and hearing the fans' messages about IPL lifting their spirits was hugely gratifying. For Prashant, balancing life and work is crucial. His team produces everything in-house, which means long hours and sometimes weekends at the office. But his family understands his passion. Evening games allow Prashant to spend mornings with his son, and no games mean a possible day off. He manages his schedule like his own domain, finding structure in chaos. Reflecting on his journey, Prashant emphasizes the importance of keeping your eyes and ears open and working hard. Dedication and sincerity bring good things your way. He also finds the organization's support for maternity and paternity leave phenomenal. With a 100-year history, he believes the organization offers invaluable learning experiences. #LifeAtDisneyStar
