Parineeti Chopra wants to totally concentrate on her character in her upcoming film, a remake of Hollywood film The Girl On The Train, and told a leading daily that she will begin filming in her “second home” London in July.
“In a bid to stay in character while filming, we decided to shoot it in a single schedule, beginning in July. Usually, England is a holiday spot for me, but this time, it's going to be like school. I want to concentrate on my act; head to the set every day, return to the hotel and work on my character," Parineeti told the daily.
The actress has spent enough time in UK as she completed her education at a business school in the country. "England will become my university again. I will become a student, because I am going to treat it like that to deliver the best possible performance,” she added.
The Girl On The Train will be produced by Reliance Entertainment. The Hollywood film was based on author Paula Hawkins' 2015 debut novel of the same name. The yet untitled film will be directed by Ribhu Dasgupta, who has previously helmed TE3N, starring Amitabh Bachchan.
"The (prep work) also involves tallying the material in the (book and the film), and using them as a starting point to understand her character. Though a remake, the screenplay has its own nuances. Parineeti will work towards achieving those when prep work begins," a source said while speaking of the film.
The Girl On The Train was also remade into a Hollywood film by Steven Spielberg’s DreamWorks Pictures and cast Emily Blunt in the lead role.
