In a landmark move for Indian cinema, superstar Ajay Devgn and his son Yug Devgan have come together to voice the Hindi version of Karate Kid: Legends, set for theatrical release on May 30, 2025. This marks the first time the father-son duo have collaborated professionally, making it a momentous occasion for fans. Ajay lends his voice to the legendary character Mr. Han—originally portrayed by Jackie Chan—while Yug makes his much-anticipated debut voicing the young protagonist Li Fong, played by Ben Wang in the English version.
This collaboration is also significant as it marks Ajay Devgn’s first-ever voiceover performance for an international film. Known for his intense screen presence and powerful voice, Devgn brings gravitas and familiarity to the beloved Mr. Han, while his son brings fresh energy to the coming-of-age journey at the heart of the story. Yug’s entry into the entertainment industry has been eagerly awaited, and this voice role offers a unique and age-appropriate introduction for the young Devgan.
Sony Pictures Entertainment India is pulling out all the stops for this high-profile release. Karate Kid: Legends will be released in Indian cinemas in four languages—English, Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu—broadening its appeal across a diverse national audience. With the combination of a globally recognized franchise and local star power, the Hindi version aims to resonate deeply with Indian viewers, especially younger audiences who may be experiencing The Karate Kid for the first time.
The father-son duo’s involvement not only adds emotional depth to the project but also underlines the evolving dynamics of Indian participation in global entertainment. As the film gears up for its multilingual release, the excitement is palpable—not just for the next chapter in the Karate Kid saga, but for the personal milestone it represents for Ajay and Yug Devgan.
