Shraddha
Kapoor
has
begun
shooting
for
the
biopic
on
badminton
champion
Naina
Sehwal
which
is
helmed
by
Amol
Gupta.
This
morning,
the
makers
revealed
from
first
look
from
the
film
and
boy,
the
actress
looks
a
splitting
image
of
Saina.
Don't
believe
us?
Then
see
it
for
yourself-
Dressed
in
a
red
t-shirt
and
black
skirt,
she
is
seen
with
a
badminton
in
her
hand
and
mole
on
her
left
cheek
just
like
Saina.
Shraddha
who
has
been
practising
for
months
including
many
6am
training
sessions
while
juggling
other
commitments
says,
"I
have
already
clocked
40
classes
of
badminton
in
preparation
for
this
biopic.
It's
a
really
tough
sport,
but
I
am
enjoying
myself.
To
get
an
insight
into
the
life
of
a
sportsperson
is
fascinating.
Saina's
journey
itself
is
so
interesting
-
right
from
her
misses
to
her
injuries
and
victories.
I
can
relate
to
her
journey
in
a
big
way,
because
I
have
gone
through
similar
experiences
in
a
different
field.
Despite
everything,
she
has
not
let
her
focus
shift
and
that's
what's
truly
inspiring."
Last
year,
Shraddha
had
even
met
Saina's
parents
when
she
visited
her
residence.
Speaking
about
it,
she
told
IANS,
"Saina's
parents
gave
lots
of
love
to
me
and
they
treated
me
like
a
family
when
I
visited
their
home,
so,
it
felt
really
nice
to
see
them
here."
Later
when
Shraddha
started
shooting
for
the
film,
Saina's
parents
visited
the
sets
as
well.
The
actress
was
quoted
as
saying,
"When
Saina's
parents
came
here
to
visit
us,
then
it
felt
like
my
parents
had
visited
us
on
the
film
set.
I
feel
very
lucky
to
be
part
of
this
film
and
to
be
seating
along
with
these
respected
people."
The
makers
are
yet
to
announce
the
release
date
of
the
film.
Meanwhile,
what
do
you
folks
think
about
Shraddha's
first
look
from
the
film?
