Given her busy date diary, Sanya Malhotra has been juggling the shoot of her yet-untitled next with Shah Rukh Khan, and the cop caper backed by Guneet Monga. The actor, who recently returned to Mumbai after wrapping up a chunk of Monga’s film in Madhya Pradesh, had to report to the set of the Khan-starrer the very next day. In keeping with the mood of the stylised actioner, director Atlee had lined up high-octane stunts for the week-long stint.
Though action is unfamiliar territory for Malhotra, sources reveal that she quickly picked up the basics of handling a gun. “Shah Rukh and Sanya had to film high-intensity stunts during the schedule. Undergoing gun-training for four to five days before the shoot would have been ideal. But Sanya’s calendar did not offer such a window. So, before facing the camera, she underwent an intense prep of a few hours that familiarised her with the working of guns,” says a source.

The sequence also saw her engage in kick-boxing and somersaults. The source adds, “Since she is a dancer, her agility helped her ace the portions.” After wrapping up the project, Malhotra will move on to the Hindi remake of The Great Indian Kitchen (2021).
