Tamil dubbing questions, answered

Can I create an English-to-Tamil video dub?

Yes. Choose English as the source language and Tamil as the target in Sarvam. Review technical vocabulary and the translated script before exporting the Tamil dub.

Should a Tamil dub use formal or conversational language?

Choose the register for your audience and content. A public announcement may need formal Tamil, while an interview may need conversational phrasing. Review the translated lines with that choice in mind.

What is AI dubbing in Tamil?

AI dubbing translates speech from a video or audio recording into Tamil and generates a new voice track. Sarvam lets you review the translated script, edit individual lines and export the dubbed version.

Which files can I upload for Tamil dubbing?

The workspace accepts MP4 and MOV video, or MP3 and WAV audio, with uploads up to 2 GB. The dubbing API also accepts MKV, WebM, AVI, FLV, WMV and M4A. API size and duration limits depend on your plan.

Can I dub a video with multiple speakers into Tamil?

Yes. Set the number of speakers during setup and choose voice cloning to retain their vocal identities. You can also leave the speaker count and source language on auto-detect. Review each speaker’s lines in the Tamil output, especially where voices overlap.

Can I correct one line of the Tamil dub?

Yes. Edit the translated text in its timestamped block, regenerate that block’s audio and listen again. You can compare it with the original and adjust the dubbed, original and background audio levels before export.

Can I download Tamil subtitles as well as the dubbed video?

The workspace exports the reviewed dubbed video. For separate deliverables, the dubbing API can generate video, audio and an SRT subtitle file for Tamil. Request the formats you need in export_options when creating the job.

How much does Tamil dubbing cost?

The default Starter API rate is ₹40 per minute of source media for each target language, billed per whole second. A 5-minute video dubbed into one language costs ₹200 at that rate. Editor-enabled API jobs use a different rate. On the Sarvam platform, dubbing with the editor costs ₹80 per minute, and your first 30 minutes are free when you sign up. In the workspace, check the credit estimate before creating your dub. See the linked documentation for current pricing.

How do I automate Tamil dubbing?

Use ta-IN as the target language code in Sarvam’s dubbing API. Create a job, upload your media, start processing and poll until completion. Then retrieve the requested exports. You can include multiple target languages in one job.
