Rio 2, the sequel to the hit animated film Rio is all set to release on April 11, 2014. The movie will be released in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu and the Hindi version has been dubbed by Imran Khan and Sonakshi Sinha.

The storyline, follows off from the first installment, picking up from where the first part ended. It’s a jungle out there for Blu, Jewel and their three kids in the sequel. They venture from that magical city into the wilds of the Amazon for a family reunion where Blu finds he's out of his element in a land he doesn’t know and to top if off he must face his most fearsome adversary – his father in law – while evading Nigel‘s fiendish plans for revenge.

IBNLive.com reported that Imran had stated that "the macaw Blu is a complete delight on-screen and when I was approached to voice Blu in 'Rio 2' I readily agreed to be a part of the film. Though I have always admired animations from a viewer's point of view, this time with 'Rio 2' I learnt about many fascinating elements that combine to make the final stellar film. "There are so many nuances that synergize beautifully and its a completely different world when we compare to other movies. I had fun while dubbing as I had complete freedom of giving various reactions, expressions through my voice, which is different from Bollywood, where we re-enact our dialogues shot previously." He also added, "I got a chance to sing a few lines of Blu in the movie for a party sequence that was an awesome moment." .

Sonakshi has also sung for an interesting party sequence in the film and says she enjoyed the experience of being a voice for an animated character.

"I enjoyed dubbing for Rio 2 because firstly, it's such a fun film, and secondly, because I felt like Imran (Khan) and I were perfect for the characters of Jewel and Blu," the Dabangg girl said in a statement.

"There's a scene where Jewel is dancing and singing, so they made me sing a few lines as well. It was such a new experience! I would have even loved to sing more but unfortunately I am only just a bathroom singer," she added.

The English version of the movie is voiced by Anne Hathaway and Jesse Eisenberg.

Rio 2, an adventure comedy set in the Brazilian city of Rio De Janeiro, is releasing in 3D here in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu.
