Disha Patani is gearing up for the release of romantic action thriller Malang helmed by Mohit Suri. She will be seen in the role of a “free-spirited, wild soul who lives life on her own terms”. Like Suri, who felt that Disha suited this role the best, the actress too feels close to her character.

“I am also a very independent person though not so carefree. I am still exploring myself as to who I am. I’m very excited about Malang. I haven’t watched the film yet but I am quite eager to do so,” shared the actress.

A huge fan of thriller and action genre, Disha has expressed her excitement undergoing extensive training in water sports, as her character in Malang pulls off several water-based stunts. She prepped and trained in scuba diving and kite-surfing for almost a week before kicking off her shoot.

“Aditya (Roy Kapur, her co-star) and I shot underwater for 12 hours, from 6 pm to 6 am, in the pitch dark. We also had to hold our breath at times. Swimming in a long dress was difficult, all that looks good in shots. The activities were very different and challenging because we had to learn everything in just a day or two, whereas, normally people take years of experience to learn underwater sports. But overall it was a lot of fun for me performing all those stunts because I really like sports,” says Disha.

Directed by Mohit Suri, Malang releases in cinemas this Friday, 7^thFebruary 2020. The movie also stars Aditya Roy Kapur, Anil Kapoor and Kunal Kemmu in pivotal roles.
