Global icon Priyanka Chopra recently turned heads at the Red Sea Film Festival. At the event, while discussing her career, Priyanka also opened up about doing action on screen while working on the Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Don. The actor said she “tasted blood a little bit” while doing the Farhan Akhtar directorial.
“I took Tai Chi classes and worked really hard to perfect it because I wanted to do it right. By the time I came to Don, I had realised that the most important thing to focus on is my craft, not your relationships with your director, co-actors, not how you behave on set, but what you do between action and cut,” said the actor.
Stating that people enjoyed watching her in the film, Priyanka said, “A lot of training went into the action sequences in Don, and I tasted blood a little bit. I look really good with a weapon in my hand defending my country; what can I say?”
Priyanka Chopra essayed the role of Roma in Don. The original, written by Salim-Javed, starred Amitabh Bachchan in the lead role. Filmmaker Farhan Akhtar remade Don in 2006 with SRK in the lead.
The director recently announced Don 3, which will see Ranveer Singh in the titular role. The movie will also star Kiara Advani in a pivotal role.
