Priyanka Chopra, Fatima Sana Shaikh

MUMBAI: Over the years, several Bollywood actresses have pushed boundaries by embracing challenging roles - and not only in the sense of emotional, but physically demanding roles. Displaying their true acting abilities and dedication to embrace complexities, here's looking at the top 5 actresses who got themselves trained in sports for films.

Priyanka Chopra: Priyanka Chopra brought to life the journey of female boxing champion Mary Kom. The actress performed the boxing sequences herself and did not use a body double. From running, jumping, lifting weights, and doing intense workouts, Priyanka built a body like that of MC Mary Kom in 90 days flat!

Parineeti Chopra: In Saina, Parineeti Chopra captured the journey of the badminton champion Saina Nehwal. To step into the shoes of the Olympian shuttler, she trained herself in badminton for two hours each day and was constantly neck-deep in preparations for the film.

Fatima Sana Shaikh: Dangal emerged as a career-defining film for Fatima Sana Shaikh, and she trained extensively for her role in the sports drama. From functional training and kickboxing to watching wrestling videos to understanding the wrestlers' movements and body language, Fatima Sana Shaikh justified her training and execution to the fullest.

Kangana Ranaut: In Panga, Kangana Ranaut played a National-level Kabaddi player poised for a comeback after giving birth. From understanding the techniques of swift legwork, attack strategies, defence, and learning all the nitty gritties, Kangana ensured to bring authenticity to her role.  

Radhikka Madan: In Kachhey Limbu, Radhikka Madan played the role of a cricketer, for which she underwent intense training sessions. To understand the technique, mannerisms, and intricate details of the game, Radhikka Madan underwent proper cricket training to fuse her role with naturalness and honesty.

These actresses have not only undergone dedicated training sessions for sports drama but have also justified their roles with hard work and the sheer intention to go beyond glamorous roles.
