Having already learnt Martial arts and Kalaripayattu, it has helped me a lot in these action scenes. While doing a historical character you have weapon in your hands, but for the kind of action scenes in this film, I had to make use of my hands as weapons. But, you need to take care while doing such action scenes. And, I really enjoyed doing them.”
