The Indian actress and a model Jacqueline Fernandez says that she has a genuine interest in learning Urdu. She made her acting debut with the movie titled ‘Aladin’. She rose the popularity with her 2011 psychological thriller movie ‘Murder 2’, which was directed by Mohit Suri and produced by Mahesh Bhatt. Later, she appeared in many movies like Housefull 2, Race 2, Housefull 3, Dishoom, A Flying Jatt, Kick and much more. She has even appeared as a judge in the dance reality show title Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. Currently, she is gearing up for her upcoming quirky action comedy movie ‘A Gentleman’ opposite Sidharth Malhotra, which was directed by Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK and produced by Fox Star Studios.
Recently, Jacqueline Fernandez says that she has a keen interest in learning the beautiful Urdu language. She says, “I have a genuine interest to learn Urdu, a language that sounds so beautiful. At times, I read something and if I find any word that sounds interesting, I note it down, learn it and try to incorporate it into my conversation. In fact, once I learn the language, I want to read books in that language… It’s a gradual process, but I want to learn everything slowly.”
Earlier, there was a news that when she was working with Salman Khan in a movie title ‘Kick’, Salman had brought a coach for her to give Urdu lessons to the actress. But Jacqueline always enjoys herself in engaging in outdoor activities. She says, “Whenever I get time, I go for horse riding… I love that. I also play the piano, love cooking and reading books. I am not a video game person.”
In her upcoming movie ‘A Gentleman’, she would be seen doing an action scene. Earlier also she has been part of the high on action movies like ‘Kick’, ‘Brothers’ and ‘Dishoom’. About the same, She said, “When directors Raj and DK came to me saying there is a scene in the film where Kavya (the character) has to pick up the gun and shoot people, I was like ‘Wow! Finally, I got a chance to do action’. I think action comes to me very naturally and I wish to do more action in future.”
When asked what are her priorities while choosing movies, Jacqueline says, “Well, there is a bunch of things that I take into account… Whom I am collaborating with, how my character will be represented and if that interest me. In this film, my character Kavya is very adventurous by nature, like me… And I like that.”
‘A Gentleman’ will release on August 25.
