Akshara Gowda is quite the biker chick

When Akshara Gowda signed up to play Artha in Yogaraj Bhat’s Panchatantra, she knew that she had to play a tomboy, who runs a garage. But little did she know that they would also make her ride a bike and that too a Bullet to boost. “I could ride a two-wheeler, like, for instance, 100cc non-geared one, but then I was told that the team wanted me to ride a Bullet. They trained me to ride it, albeit on city roads, so when we came to the location, I was aghast, as I had to ride on muddy uneven terrains, including slopes.It was scary, but I managed to do it,” says Akshara.
