The actress has been applauded for her acting abilities. We hope that all her hard work pays off on the silver screen.
From boxing to push-ups, Priyanka is seen sweating it out.
Fondly called as 'Spider-Man ki behen' by her trainer and by the looks of it, all her sweat, hard work and turmoil has surely paid off in the trailer.
It wasn’t easy for her because she had not done this kind of thing before. This will undoubtedly be the toughest movie for Priyanka.
Priyanka wasn't a regular gym person but she made it a point to practice and prepare three hours daily. The actress followed a strict diet to slip into the physique of a female boxer.
Samir Jaura, the man who helped her develop a toned look traveled for five months, accompanying her to award functions and even song recording.
Priyanka took keen interest in preparing for the role, met Mary Kom and spent days with her to get under the skin of the character.
