Translate your video to Odia, with AI dubbing and lip sync
Lipsmatch makes your video speak Odia, also called Oriya. If you already have an Odia dub, we match the speaker's mouth to it. If not, we translate your script into Odia. Our technology recreates the speaker's own voice for the Odia lines, and the lips move with every word.
Shot in Hindi, aired in Odia
Britannia filmed this 50-50 Golmaal ad in Hindi. Tap Original to hear the client's own Odia dub. The mouth still speaks Hindi. Then tap Lipsmatch. At the same moment, the lips form each Odia word. Odia was one of the 9 languages of the campaign. Its 4 films became 36 broadcast masters and ran in IPL primetime.
Odia viewers see Odia on the lips
Odia viewers get an Odia version only if the maker of the video publishes one. Lipsmatch makes that version from the video you already have. The speaker's own recreated voice speaks Odia, and the mouth moves with it.
For a viewer in Bhubaneswar, Cuttack or Sambalpur, the speaker now talks to them in Odia. In the picture, only the mouth changes. The face, the light and the edit stay as filmed.
Our team checks every Odia file before it reaches you. You then post it as a separate video. It can go on an Odia channel, in a playlist, as a Short or a Reel, or on your website.

You approve the Odia before we make any voice
If we translate your script into Odia, we agree on 4 points with you first.
- Standard Odia or a regional variety. Standard Odia suits viewers across Odisha. Some viewers live in one region, such as the Sambalpuri speakers in the west. If most of yours do, tell us before we translate.
- Tone. A brand film, a lecture and a vlog each talk to viewers in a different way. The Odia keeps the tone your speaker chose.
- English words that stay. Brand names, product names and technical terms each get one fixed form. You approve that list once, and every video follows it.
- Line length. The cuts and pauses in the picture stay as they are. Dubbing research advises that each dubbed line lasts about as long as the original line. So each Odia line fits the time of the line it replaces. Then Lipsmatch shapes the lips to the Odia.
Hindi to Odia, English to Odia, and back again
We work into Odia from Hindi or English, and out of Odia into both.
From Hindi. A national ad shot in Hindi can reach Odisha from the same footage. The Golmaal films took this route into Odia, and also into Bengali and Assamese.
From English. NPTEL is the national course platform run by the IITs. It already offers dubbed course audio in 11 Indian languages, and Odia is one of them. Your English lessons, training and company videos can reach learners in Odisha too. They see the same teacher and hear a recreated version of the same voice.
Out of Odia. An Odia creator, teacher or organisation can reach viewers across India and abroad. The speaker talks to them in English or Hindi, in a recreated version of their own voice.
Odia versions for brands, agencies, campuses and channels
Choose the page for your kind of work. If you send us videos every week, a monthly plan fits. We deliver the Odia versions in batches through the month.

Odia dubbing questions
Does YouTube auto dubbing support Odia?
No. YouTube's automatic dubbing cannot dub into Odia or out of it. Lipsmatch makes your Odia version as a separate video. The speaker's own recreated voice speaks Odia, and the mouth matches it. Where YouTube does dub, it adds a generated sound track. The lips keep the original words. Only a new upload can show a mouth that speaks Odia.
How do I translate an English video into Odia?
Send us the finished English video, and tell us about its Odia viewers. We translate the script into Odia. Each Odia line fits the time of the English line. You approve the translation. Then our technology recreates the speaker's voice in Odia. Lipsmatch changes the mouth to match, and you get a new video file, ready to post.
How do I dub a Hindi video into Odia?
Send us the Hindi video. We translate its meaning into Odia, and you approve the Odia text. The speaker's recreated voice then says the Odia lines, and Lipsmatch matches the mouth. The Golmaal film on this page took a shorter route. Britannia brought its own Odia dub, and we matched the mouth to it.
Can AI dub my video in Odia in my own voice?
Yes. Our technology recreates your own voice, so Odia viewers hear the voice they know. It keeps the pace and energy of your original take. It speaks the Odia translation that you approved. We recreate a voice only with the approvals you already have for that voice and face. Our team checks the Odia version against your original before you see it.
Can you lip sync our existing Odia voice-over?
Yes, and this is the first of our 2 services. Send the video and the Odia audio track, from any studio. We change only the speaker's mouth, so the lips form each Odia word. The rest of the face, the light and the edit stay as filmed. The Golmaal film above came to us this way, with the client's own Odia dub.
Can you dub into Sambalpuri?
Ask us. Standard Odia suits viewers across Odisha. If most of your viewers live in western Odisha, send a short clip and tell us about them. We tell you what we can deliver in Sambalpuri before you decide.
Is Odia the same as Oriya?
Yes. Oriya is another English name for Odia, the official language of Odisha. So Oriya dubbing and Odia dubbing are the same work. We translate your script into Odia, recreate the speaker's voice and match the lips.
