New Delhi: Comedian Kapil Sharma will be honoured with PETA's Person of the Year Award by the animal rights organisation for his dedication to promote compassion for homeless dogs as well as their adoption.
"I am thrilled to learn that I’m being recognised for helping animals. I love to make people laugh but what we all should know is that dog and cat homelessness is no laughing matter," Kapil, who himself has an adopted dog named Zanjeer, said in a statement.
