In her new music video Chamkeela Chehra with Badshah, the Broken But Beautiful actress, Sonia Rathee plays a woman set out to rob a bank.
The video unfolds at a bank and amidst bamboo thickets. Sonia’s look also changes from a lethal robber donning a gun in track pants and boots to a Barbie like pink mini skirt-clad girl.
The actress had to go through physical training workshops for action scenes in the music video.
Sonia said, “I had to have a certain body type and body language to convincingly pull off this character. I followed a regimental workout session with my trainer, Gopal Chowdhary, and stole some MMA moves from Kuldeep Shashi. Some of these techniques to kick, shoot, and point a gun at someone requires a certain kind of confidence which I didn’t have so I, as always, followed the ‘fake it till you make it’ motto. Also, for a music video the training window is far less than what it would be for a film.”
