Jwala said she enjoyed every moment of her four-day shooting schedule for a Telugu movie which concluded at Saradhi Studios on Thursday evening. She said that the first three days of shooting was at a club and the final day’s shoot in the studio.

“There is no specific role in the film as such for me. It was just a special song shot on me. It was a nice, peppy one. Definitely, a great experience and felt very good while doing the shoot,” Jwala told The Hindu .

On the feeling of being out there on the shooting floor, the world championship bronze medallist said that she felt very comfortable with her good friend and hero Nitin. “The choreographer, Master Shekhar, too was very cooperative. On the whole, it was great fun,” she added.

“Initially I thought dancing would be very difficult. But once I got a feel, I didn’t find any problem in going ahead with the job,” she said. Asked if she would accept any roles in future, Jwala said she had never said no to anything on the subject. “But I am very choosy, and I should be comfortable when any role is offered to me,” she said. Right now, the shuttler will be back on the badminton court and will give a serious thought to films only if she gets offers.
