Amyra Dastur had to learn THIS for Koi Jaane Na

Amyra Dastur is trying to make her mark in the industry with the sort of work that she is taking up. She was last seen in director Leena Yadav’s Netflix Original Rajma Chawal which also starred Rishi Kapoor. It received praises from the fans and Amyra grabbed eyeballs for her performance in the slice of life film. Looks like working with the veteran actor Rishi Kapoor brought her recognition and good work. We have also observed that she is eager to switch looks between the characters that she plays. We saw her in the film Kung Fu Yoga (2017) alongside superstar Jackie Chan for which she underwent months of vigorous training in gymnastics and martial arts to prepare for her role. And we have another example of when the actress gave in her best for a role.

While preparing for Koi Jaane Na, Amyra’s character had to learn how to ride a two-wheeler with ease. Apparently, when the actress started her lessons she had to call the instructor at night as the day traffic in Mumbai prevented her from confidently learning how to ride a two-wheeler. When we asked the actress, she said, “I have never ridden a bike or Scooty in my life. My mother was always against it and especially in a place like Mumbai where nobody obeys traffic rules. I tried to learn how to ride a Scooty in the afternoon once and the roads were constantly jam-packed which made me nervous and honestly didn’t allow me to learn how to ride. I got an idea because even when I learnt how to drive a car, my mom would take me out at 10-11 pm when there was no traffic and the roads were empty. That’s what I did with my Scooty instructor as well. She would come to my house at around 11:30 pm and she would teach me for an hour. I’ve become a really good driver now and I promised my girlfriends that when we go to Goa this year I’ll be the one driving them around on my Scooty.”

She has an interesting line up of films this year like Mental Hai Kya, Prassthaanam with Sanjay Dutt, Ali Fazal, Jackie Shroff, and Monisha Koirala and Made In China with Rajkummar Rao and Boman Irani. Apart from that, she will also be seen in Koi Jaane Na with Kunal Kapoor. Well, the actress has a lot on her plate and she sure seems to be excited about it.
