Nargis Fakhri has had her voice dubbed for Rockstar.
The model-turned-actress plays the love interest of Ranbir Kapoor's singer, who experiences a meteoric rise to fame in the film.
A source told Mumbai Mirror: "After much deliberation, [director] Imtiaz Ali decided to get Fakhri's voice dubbed.
"Previously, it seemed that Nargis's voice would not need dubbing, but now he feels that it is necessary. And so he has got Mona Ghosh-Shetty to dub for the actress."
It is unknown how much of Khan's speaking part in the film will be dubbed by Ghosh-Shetty, who has previously voiced dialogue for Bipasha Basu, Rani Mukherji and Katrina Kaif.
Kapoor had reportedly insisted that the New York-based Czech-Pakistani star did not need dubbing to improve her Hindi diction.
He was said to be concerned because dubbing her voice will make her ineligible for the upcoming National Film Awards.
Ali previously dubbed Bollywood newcomer Giselli Monteiro in Love Aaj Kal.
The two actors were rumoured to be dating during the production of the film, prompting Kapoor's split with then-girlfriend Kaif.
