Actress Shruti Haasan says learning sword fighting for the upcoming historical drama Sanghamitra was mentally engaging and exhilarating.
Shruti essays the role of a warrior princess in filmmaker Sundar C's mega budget tri-lingual drama. The actress has been training with a professional sword fighting expert and action choreographer in London.
"I was so glad to have this opportunity to learn a new physical art form. After having martial arts as part of my life early on, sword fighting was a whole new experience which was physically and mentally engaging and exhilarating," Shruti said in a statement.
