Parineeti Chopra on shooting The Girl On The Train: I feel like I’m in a hostel

Parineeti Chopra kickstarted the shooting of The Girl On The Train a couple of days ago in London. The movie is a remake of Hollywood film with the same name which starred Emily Blunt in the lead role. Parineeti is stepping into the shoes on Emily and we surely have high expectations from her.

The actress took to Twitter to inform her fans that she has started shooting for the film and how she feels about it. Parineeti in a couple of tweets wrote, “So! We’ve started shooting for #GirlOnTheTrain in London. Its my MOST difficult role to date; I feel like I’m in a hostel, with no time (or headspace) for social media or chilling or doing anything else. Its a new experience for me - being cut off from everything and everyone else. Will share the first look soon. This picture was the only “timepass” I’ve done on set so far.”


The Girl On The Train is being directed by Ribhu Dasgupta and also stars Aditi Rao Hydari, Kirti Kulhari, and Avinash Tiwary. Earlier while talking about her character, Parineeti had stated, "I am super excited to be shooting this film because this is a role that I have never experienced before, read before and I think the audience has never experienced this kind of acting piece from me... So I am excited as an actor to do something completely new."

"For me to remain in the mood and for the crew to remain in the flow of things we decided to shoot this film in one schedule in England. We will be going in July," the actress added.

Parineeti will next be seen on the big screen in Jabariya Jodi which is slated to release on 9th August 2019. The film also stars Sidharth Malhotra and both the actors will be seen together on the silver screen after a gap of five years. Parineeti also has movies like Saina Nehwal biopic and Bhuj: The Pride of India in her kitty.
