Azaria let his son Hal watch the first instalment of the movie in 2011 as he was too young to understand the story. <img alt="'The Smurfs 2'" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/aug/The-Smurfs-2.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 237px;" /> &#39;The Smurfs 2&#39;. Pic/Santa Banta &ldquo;He was on set and was only one-year-old when we were shooting the first movie, and he was just barely two at the premiere. I had him on my lap thinking he would probably only stand 20 minutes of the film, being so young, but he was happy throughout the whole movie,&rdquo; Azaria said in a statement. &ldquo;He knew me as Gargamel because he&rsquo;s seen me enough in that get-up and when I would leave the screen he would go, &lsquo;Where dada go?&rsquo; He was really cute and it was really sweet having him on my lap saying that,&rdquo; he added. Azaria, who has acted in TV shows like &ldquo;Friends&rdquo; and &ldquo;Mad About You&rdquo;, has no plans of showing the sequel of the film to his son right now. &ldquo;We are not going to let him watch this one because he is old enough now to know that Gargamel is being very cruel and I think it might flip him out a little bit,&rdquo; he said. Azaria said once he is confident that Hal is old enough to differentiate between reel and real life, he would let him watch it. &ldquo;We will have to wait a few years when I know that he can handle it and know that it is &lsquo;make believe&rsquo;. Right now he believes movies are real. We have kept him from a lot of movies and he doesn&rsquo;t have nightmares. That&rsquo;s a big reason why. He is not too aware of horrible villains and things like that,&rdquo; said the actor. Azaria has lent his voice for animated TV series &ldquo;The Simpsons&rdquo; and said he used sprays and lotions to take care of his voice while recording for &ldquo;The Smurfs 2&rdquo;. &quot;The Smurfs 2&quot;, a co-production of Sony Pictures Animation and Columbia Pictures, will hit the screens Aug 2 in India.

Hank Azaria, who has lent his voice for evil wizard Gargamel in "The Smurfs 2", says he doesn't want to show the 3D animation movie to his four-year-old son. The doting father wants to keep the little one away from "horrible villains".
