97-shraddha-kapoor Game plan: So what if she has never been injured or ever won a game of badminton? Shraddha Kapoor is making up for lost time by practising the game for months. And not as a passing fancy; she is preparing to play Saina Nehwal in the biopic of the badminton player. “I have already clocked 40 classes of badminton in preparation for this biopic,” she said. “It is a really tough sport, but I am enjoying myself. To get an insight into the life of a sportsperson is fascinating.” Good for you, Shraddha. Keep the shuttlecock flying high! | AFP
