Actress Priyanka Chopra, who is among the Indian stars who will lend voice to characters of Hollywood film "The Jungle Book" for its Hindi dubbed version, says the fictional tale was one of the favourite parts of her childhood.

"The Jungle Book was one of the favourite parts of my childhood and now I get to be in it as the voice of Kaa! Wooopiee," Priyanka posted on Twitter.

Priyanka launched the Hindi version of character Kaa in "The Jungle Book", with a special video clip. Her playful and sultry voice will match Scarlett JohanssonÂ’s sensual rendition of Kaa in the English movie, which is releasing in India on April 8.
