Radhika now a double threat in dance and dishoom-dishoom

It is no secret that actress Radhika Chetan has got the moves on the dance floor given her strong affiliation to the art form. However, after an intense week-long training for an

action

sequence for her upcoming flick

Chase

, she now has got the moves to kick some some serious ass.

Radhika

spoke BT about the experience.
Recalling what she went through, Radhika says, “It was quite a change from the gentle demeanour and poise that comes with dance, which is what I am used to. The movie is an investigative thriller and I have been training with stunt masters who are the duo that worked on

U Turn

. It is my first time doing an action sequence for a film. I have got dance experience, but doing such a sequence is a completely different ball game, you cannot look delicate. You have to look rough and tough and I learnt a lot of tricks when I practiced for the scene. The trainers were of great help. When it comes to dance, you are more elegant, gentle and sophisticated. But here, this required me to unlearn my dance techniques to get the needed look for an action sequence. We trained for a week. My trainer would constantly remind me of the few instances that I carry from my dance techniques. I eventually got the hang of it and I enjoyed it. If I had to choose between dance and action, definitely dance will remain my preference as it is a form of expression for me. It will remain my favourite no matter what. Even in real life, I would like to dance rather than punch people. Having said that, doing action sequences has piqued my interest. I have more inclination for them now and I would like to try them out in other films also.”
