Mumbai, Oct 13 (IANS) Actress Taapsee Pannu has revealed that for her role in 'Rashmi Rocket', she had seen pictures and videos of a lot of Indian and international athletes' body language before, after and while running.
Taapsee said: "Yes, I did a lot of research at my level for 'Rashmi Rocket', apart from what was going on at the scripting level. I had seen pictures and videos of a lot of athletes - Indian and international - to see the body language, before, after and while running, just to see their body types, because I had to take reference of athletes especially who are of my build and height.
Taapsee said she did that bit of the research.
"Of course, I have never seen my body in that kind of a shape, so you are in for a surprise when you are trying to get those muscles to pop out because you want to see how they look on you. I had no idea how they'll end up looking on me, if I'll look similar to those references that I had taken or no. So, it was a dive of trust that I did with my training and I am glad that it ended up looking very authentic."
