At some point in life, we have all joked about having a popular character give us directions through voice navigation. It now appears that Google has heard all these jokes and more. No surprises there! Bollywood’s Shehenshah, Amitabh Bachchan, has reportedly been approached to lend his voice to our guiding light on unknown streets – Google Maps. While we’re obviously amused and excited to see things through, we still have to wait for confirmation on Big B’s acceptance of the offer.
Imagine if we can select our favourite voice to navigate through long routes, it will be fun.
A new level of innovation @GoogleIndia #GoogleMaps https://t.co/d7HMp7qli8— kankana (@KankanaLohiyaa) June 12, 2020
Big B has certainly been a legendary name across the globe. Thus, this news comes as no surprise, to be honest. His deep baritone has given an edge to the narration in many well-known films too. But will Amitabh Bachchan’s voice on Google Maps actually work?
Twitter, as always, lit up with hilarious memes on the topic. Take a look:

With Amitabh Bachchan’s voice on Google maps, I think driving will become more difficult. Cannot register and follow *Anushasan, pratishtha and sammaan* and the directions at the same time. 🤭 #toomuchinformation

Now that @Google has asked Amitabh Bachchan to lend his voice for Google navigation, I hope they include this one when the driver reaches a dead end. pic.twitter.com/fu1IKBnOdl

Just heard that Amitabh Bachchan is going to be the voice for Google Maps in India.
Would be looking forward to a tone that says: ”
Deviyon aur sajjano, sau meter aage se daaye lijiye, haayein”😀 @SrBachchan#AmitabhBachchan #GoogleMaps pic.twitter.com/xJWqDRyOqY— Narendra Kishore Mishra (@narendra_mi) June 10, 2020
