This child was the first of two boys who spoke to Indiana Jones and Short Round in their cell in 1935. Captured by the Thuggee, the boy had been forced to work in the mines beneath Pankot Palace.[1]
Behind the scenes[]
The "1st Boy in Cell" was played by Arjun Pandher in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom,[1] dubbed uncredited by voice actor Tress MacNeille.
In James Kahn's novelization and Marvel Comics' comic book adaptation of the film, his and the dialogue of the 2nd Boy in Cell are combined into one character: Nainsukh.[2][3]
