Has been training in scuba divingOf late, Ameesha Patel has been spending more time under the water than on terra firma. This is not exactly to evade posers about the new man (Kanav Puri) in her life but in preparation for a role.
The actress has been learning scuba diving from Arish Adenwalla at The Club, Andheri.
Role call This training programme is for Kunal Kohli's untitled Yash Raj film, starring her with Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerji. It is learnt that there are scenes that are to be filmed in the deep with Ameesha and Saif — part of a song picturisation.
Says Ameesha, "I can't reveal much about the film but all I can say is that this will help me in my role."
Though she has been training in scuba diving gear; for the shoot, the actress will not be seen in scuba gear but in her character's clothes!
Says Ameesha, "I have been training 16 feet deep and have to cope with the swim goggles and oxygen tank too!" The actress, however, admits that she would not want to pursue scuba diving "Swimming is okay but going underwater is not for me."
