I have a collection of Hindi movie scripts that I need rendered naturally in Tamil. The focus is strictly on the spoken lines—no narration, no technical notes—just clean, flowing dialogue that will sound authentic when performed on screen.
Because the material spans every kind of scene you can imagine—action bursts, tender romantic exchanges, fast-paced comedy beats—I need a translator who can switch registers effortlessly and keep the original intent, timing and emotional punch intact. Cultural localisation is important: colloquialisms, punch lines and region-specific references should feel as though they were written for a Tamil-speaking audience from the start.
Here is what I’m expecting from you:
• A Tamil-language version of each dialogue file, matching the source line-for-line so the director can trace every change.
• Consistent character voices and tone across the entire script.
• Careful attention to lip-sync suitability where possible, since many lines will be dubbed.
If you have prior experience translating film dialogue or working with subtitle/dubbing teams, please mention it. A brief sample (2-3 lines) from the script will be provided once we connect so I can gauge style before moving ahead with the full batch.
