Trust me when I say that even in your wildest dreams, you've never heard anything like this."Adding to it, Neil Gaiman, the writer of The Sandman, said, "I've been amazed over the last few years to discover, through social media, how many people in India love 'The Sandman', from Bollywood stars to students, from Professors to taxi drivers. (There's a Bollywood star, who is a fan, in Act III of Audible's English Language Sandman, but that's a story for another time.) It thrills me so much that now these stories will be able to be heard in Hindi, and that we've got the cast that we've got. Sweet dreams to you all."Shedding light on his character of Doctor Destiny, Manoj Bajpayee said, "A criminal genius, a megalomaniac obsessed with world domination - bringing alive Doctor Destiny, one of DC's biggest Super-Villains with just the power of my voice is an experience I don't think I am going to forget any time soon."He further said, "What an incredibly imaginative, sometimes horrifying world Neil Gaiman has created in The Sandman - I urge fans to listen to this first instalment of the multi-part original audio series - I guarantee it will transport listeners to a whole new, chilling and completely unexpected world."The fantasy horror series has pierced the cultural zeitgeist through its dark world of fantasy and horror.
