Myers Created Guru Voice To Cheer Sick Pals Up:
Mike Myers created the voice for his new movie guru Pitka to cheer ill friends up.
The funnyman has been working on his The Love Guru character for years and came up with the comic spiritual leader’s Indian voice in an effort to give sick pals a laugh.
He explains, “The Seat of The Soul was a book I read that I saw on Oprah and I loved it. This is a guy who was a green beret and he was also a physicist.
“When I talked about what I was reading philosophically this mellifluous voice would emerge.
“My friends loved it and, in fact, would ask me to call them when they were not feeling well in that voice: ..You have a cold? This is the universe telling you to be with yourself because the only way out is in.

Hindu Leader Takes Aim At Myers Over ‘Frivolous’ Guru Comments
The war of words between Mike Myers and a U.S. Hindu leader, who is urging the public to boycott his latest comedy, just got personal after the actor told Rajan Zed to watch the film before damning his portrayal of an oddball spiritual guru.
Hindu leader Zed has been leading a protest against The Love Guru for months after learning Myers mocks his religion in the film.
He tells WENN, “It appears the film lampoons Hinduism and Hindus and uses Hindu terms frivolously.
“
But Myers counters, “This guy has not seen the film. What he will find is that this is a mythical and completely made up system of teachings in the tradition of The Force in Star Wars and Fredonia in the Marx Brothers movies.
