However, what really makes things interesting is the fact that giving Akshay company would be mom-in-law Dimple Kapadia who would also be lending her voice for one of the characters in the film.
Bollywood Hungama spoke to Ms. Sarita Patil, Head-Motion Pictures at Percept Picture Company who confirmed this news. ''Yes, Akshay Kumar has already dubbed for Jumbo and even Dimple Kapadia would be lending her voice for this animated film. Jumbo is an emotional story of an elephant and also stresses on family values and relationships.
