Meiyang Chang: Mufasa Dubbing, From Dentist to Indian Idol Singer, Badmaash Company & Diljit Dosanjh

What do singing, dentistry, and acting all have in common? Meiyang Chang. Chang’s story begins with his multi-talented father, a dentist with a deep love for Hindi comics. But how did this passion influence Chang’s career? And how did his childhood in Dhanbad and Mussoorie shape him into the man he is today? Get ready to find out. Chang’s love for singing goes way back—so much so that his Rakhi sister pushed him to audition for Indian Idol. He made it to the finals! But what really happens behind the scenes of a reality show like that? Chang reveals all, including what it’s like to go from contestant to host. And let’s not forget his time in Bangalore—Chang shares some interesting stories from his dentistry days, including how he picked up a bit of Kannada. Plus, how did his teachers help him shape his personality and teach him Hindi? Spoiler: It wasn’t all textbooks. As a kid, Chang was hooked on Hindi comics, long before the world of DC and Marvel took over. And his love for comics didn’t end there. He went on to act in Badmaash Company with YRF, win Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, and conquer Khatron Ke Khiladi! What’s next? Chang is starring in Karate Girls and voicing Taka in Mufasa: The Lion King, who eventually becomes Scar—but don’t expect him to join the Bigg Boss house anytime soon.
