Actress Sai Tamhankar, who has mostly featured in Marathi films, gained 10 kg for her forthcoming film Love Sonia, based on child trafficking. Sai’s character Anjali needed a certain body type. A source close to Sai said it was important to gain weight for the role.
“When Sai heard the script, one thing that came to her mind was that her character Anjali is a pimp who used to be a prostitute. She is carefree and probably won’t be in the best of shape. The additional weight gain helped her get the body language,” said the source.
The Ghajini actress wanted to make her character look authentic.
Directed by Tabrez Noorani, “Love Sonia” is produced by Tamasha Talkies, David Womark and Noorani. (IANS)
