After wrapping up her shoot for an untitled film opposite Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff, Vaani Kapoor is all set to dive into her character in ‘Shamshera’ which will have Ranbir Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt in the lead roles. The actress has proved her dancing skills many times and one such proof is the song “Nashe Si Chadh Gayi” from ‘Befikre’. And now, according to a latest report, she has taken up her dancing skills to a new level and have started to undergo a rigorous training for Kathak as she plays the role of a travelling performer from India in her new project.

In a statement, Vaani said, “Since Shamshera is set in a particular time, the dance sequences require me to have a very Indian, very classical body language, which is why I started taking kathak classes to learn the nuances and the grace. Karan specifically wanted me to adapt to a more traditional Indian dance form and break from the western style to do justice to the choreography that is being set for me.”

Helmed by Karan Malhotra, ‘Shamshera’ is based on the 1800s backdrop where a dacoit tribe fights for their rights and independence from Britishers. The film also features Ronit Roy in the lead roles amongst others. It is all set to hit the screens on July 31, 2020.
