Dubbing career
Vinod Kulkarni started his career in 1986, when he dubbed for International productions such as Popeye. At the time, there were few contenders for such work and recognition came far easier. "We were all stars then, " he recalls. "But unlike me, others would feel awkward when asked to audition for voices or imitate animals. So not many came forward", he said.[4]

gollark: Well, I wanted to write a thing, and my choices are/were essentially:- Rust - kind of annoying (yes, yes, I know) since I don't care that much about performance and don't mind just waiting for the garbage collector to garbage collect- JavaScript - fast/easy for me to write, but horribly resource-inefficient and it'll probably break in a few months from dependencies- Python - I don't really like it for larger-scale things, and dependency management is still fairly bees- something else, and I'd heard OCaml was neat
