Actor Rana Daggubati, who has voiced Barca in the Hindi, Tamil and Telugu versions of Solo Leveling Season 2, met fans at a special screening of Solo Leveling: ReAwakening in Delhi Comic Con on December 6.
Solo Leveling: Reawakening, the first film in the anime franchise, offers a recap of the previous season of the show, along with a sneak peek of the first couple of episodes of the upcoming instalment.
Speaking about the experience, Rana said, “Bringing Barca to life across three languages has been an exciting challenge, but the real reward is connecting with fans who really love anime. Seeing their energy and excitement at the screening and at Comic Con was truly special. Anime is becoming a cultural phenomenon in India, and I’m honored to be part of this incredible journey.”
At the event, Rana shared his experience of voicing Barca and stepping into the world of anime. Barca, the formidable boss of the Red Gate Dungeon, is set to showcase his unparalleled sword mastery, speed, and stealth in the second season of Solo Leveling. The upcoming instalment promises an epic showdown between Barca and the protagonist Jinwoo.
