While she underwent a two-month training in parkour and gymnastics to render the part with authenticity, Disha ended up injuring her knee only a week before the shoot kicked off in Mumbai. "As part of my prep, I had already learnt different kinds of skills like front and back flips. However, I hurt my knee just days before the shoot. I was doing a front salto [a flipping skill which includes a front or back tuck] during my rehearsal when I mistimed my landing and injured my knee. I was advised bed rest for the next few days and underwent deep tissue massages for relief. Luckily, I recovered [in time] for the shoot," said Patani.
A few days ago, Disha Patani also shared how her mom and dad react to her bold photoshoots, which she also shares on social media. Disha has become a social media sensation with 21 million followers in a very short span of her B-town career. She is already an inspiration for many, and her hot body and sultry looks are to die for!
In an interview with a leading daily, Disha revealed that though her parents are cool about the shoots, the pictures do make her father feel "awkward".
The Baaghi 2 actress said: "I know my parents are watching me. They know it's work, and I am not doing anything wrong. I am sure they are proud of me. Of course, my father feels awkward whenever I send my pictures on the family [WhatsApp] group. After all, he is a father."
Talking about her mom, Disha said, "My mother is on Instagram now but with a different name. She stalks me, so I don't send the pictures anymore."
Apart from this, Disha Patani will be next seen in Mohit Suri's Malang, opposite Aditya Roy Kapur.
