Nepali actress Namrata Shrestha, who
likes experimenting with her characters in movies, has once again
adapted to a bold look for her upcoming movie, Xira. At a press meet for
the promotion this week for Xira—the women-centric action movie based
on mixed martial arts—revealed her never-before-seen look.Shrestha dons a
mohawk for the movie and has lost weight to fit into the character she
is playing. Speaking at the event, Shrestha said that although she was
not comfortable trimming her hair, she had to do it to justify the
character she was playing. She also shared the demanding months of
physical training she had to undergo in preparing for the character and
to shape her body accordingly. The movie aims to empower women and
recognize their contribution and also to provide a diverse and
meaningful portrayal of the mixed martial arts community.
