Indian Railway: Ting-Tong, passengers please note... You must have heard this voice at the railway station. Have you ever wondered whose voice is this? There is no woman behind this announcement of the railways, which gives information about the timing of trains, platforms and trains, but the voice of a 24-year-old man. You will be surprised to hear, but it is true that behind the announcement of the railway, there is actually a man's voice.
Whose voice is behind the railways' announcement system?
Behind this voice heard on the platform is the voice of 24-year-old Shravan Adode. Shravan used to mimic that voice in fun at first, but later the same mimicry made his career. Many times due to technical flaws, the railway is not able to hear the recorded announcement. Many times a manual announcement has to be made due to last minute changes. In such a situation, a new path opened for Shravan Adode.
Who is Shravan Adode?
Shravan, who hails from Pali, Maharashtra, was earlier teased by people for his mimicry, but he loved copying the voice of others. Shravan used to copy the announcements heard at railway stations. Sarla Chaudhary, whose voice was used as a woman announcer on railway platforms, was later replaced by Shravan.
I got a job in the railways.
Indian Railways hired Shravan Adode as a consultant and recorded a basic message in his voice. The names of different trains and stations were also recorded. They were digitally mixed and played. No one could catch that this voice was not of a woman but of a boy. Seeing their work, the Railways made them permanent employees. Shravan makes announcements in the voice of the woman according to different stations and trains for the railways. They like it.
