Speaking about his debut in Indian cinema, Shubman told The Hindu why he chose to be a part of the film. “You have to ask the makers why they chose me to voice the character. But they told me I was the first name that came to their mind,” he said adding, “I was excited when this opportunity came about. I knew it was going to be challenging because I’d never dubbed for a film. That was all the more reason for me to do it.”

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse can be viewed anytime on Netflix.
