It's truly raining biopics for Shraddha Kapoor. After her portrayal of mafia queen Haseena Parkar, the actress is all set to deliver yet another story on badminton champion Saina Nehwal. And while training for the film is in full-swing, Shraddha was spotted in Goa to meet Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar and inaugurate a mobile theatre at an Entertainment Society of Goa event.

The actress has revealed that she is on a long break from badminton training for her upcoming film due to an injury suffered whilst rigorously training. On the topic, she said, "The sport is just amazing. It makes me feel energised, alive and also de-stressed. But recently, I injured my foot so I am on a break from badminton. I will resume practice as soon as I get the all-clear from the doctor."

Shraddha even opened up about dubbing for the Prabhas-starrer and the Tamil-Telugu-Hindi trilingual 'Saaho'. "I am enjoying the process of delivering my own lines in a different language. I find it easier because I speak Marathi, thanks to my mom and aunts. Also, growing up in a bit of a cocktail set-up of Punjabis (father Shakti Kapoor's side) and Maharashtrians, one tends to pick up words from different languages. I am ready to dub in the other South Indian languages too. If my director (Sujeeth) asks me, I'm up for it," she said.
