Kareena Kapoor Khan’s voice-over as the shrewd python Kaa has got attention in the recently-released Hindi trailer of Netflix’s Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle. Apart from her, other Bollywood actors who have lent their voices for the film – which is based on Rudyard Kipling’s classic The Jungle Book stories – include Anil Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit, Abhishek Bachchan and Jackie Shroff.
Kareena spoke about her character and why she decided to say yes to the project.
“Everybody has grown up watching The Jungle Book. Our whole youth has been about Mowgli, Bagheera, Baloo and other characters. These characters have actually lived with us. I think it’s amazing that now we are getting to see them on a global platform like Netflix,” she said at the red carpet of the film’s world premiere on Sunday.
Talking about the character that she likes the most, the Veere Di Wedding star said that Kaa has been her favourite always.
