Professional boxing coaches for Priyanka
The makers of the Mary Kom biopic are going to great lengths to make their film as authentic as possible, sources say. Priyanka Chopra, who plays the boxing champion in the Omung Kumar-directed movie, is believed to have already started fitness training. The producers are keen on roping in either a professional boxing coach or one who has worked with the best films in the genre (like Rocky and Million Dollar Baby). They are even considering working with someone who has trained national boxing champions.
Meanwhile, Sameer Johal, Farhan Akhtar’s trainer for Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, is said to have started working with Priyanka. In addition, Rob Miller, sports action director of Chak De! India, has also been brought on board for the ring sequences. Says our source, “Boxing requires high levels of stamina, so Sameer seemed an apt choice. Rob’s expertise in sports direction will contribute immensely.”
