Kapil Sharma is the latest Indian celebrity to have his name associated to a hit Hollywood franchise. After Shah Rukh Khan and his son Aryan Khan mesmerised us with their voices in `The Lion King`, the popular comedian is all set to lend his voice to Hindi version of animated `The Angry Birds Movie 2`.

Kapil Sharma who is known for creating laugh riots on television has been roped in to do voice over for the hot-headed bird, Red, in the film.
