Dubbing History
In 1992, an English dub would be recorded in India, using mainly Indian actors who are fluent in English. This would actually be the very first language track recorded for the film. It would be premiered at the 24th International Film Festival of India New Delhi from January 10–20 in 1993. The film was also shown at the Vancouver International Film Festival later that year. A Hindi-language version would also be recorded later on in time. Despite Japan's heavy contribution to the film, a Japanese dub was never made.

In 2001, the film would be distributed in the US by Showcase Entertainment with a whole new dub recorded in Los Angeles. This version was released under the title Prince of Light, and features narration by James Earl Jones, as well as additional music by Alan Howarth. Despite the presence of Jones and a then unknown Bryan Cranston, the dub has since become extremely scarce; as of 2023 no physical copies have been found nor has it been uploaded anywhere online. Only a trailer and a few news articles prove its existence.
