Criticisms and pitfalls of Hindi-dubbed releases

A publisher finds himself trapped in a nursing home.

There is no officially released Hindi-dubbed version of the Wachowskis and Tom Tykwer’s Cloud Atlas (2012).

or availability for specific Indian platforms?

The official Hindi dub respects the film’s diversity. The voice actors do a commendable job differentiating the six timelines. Notably, the same Hindi voice actor dubs the same actor across different lives. For instance, Tom Hanks’ multiple characters (Dr. Goose, Isaac Sachs, Dermot Hoggins, Zachry) are all voiced by the same Hindi artist, preserving the reincarnation theme.
