Apart from enjoying a steady music career in the industry, Jassi Gill is taking his first step as an actor in Bollywood with the upcoming comedy, Happy Phirr Bhaag Jayegi. Slipping into the role of a China-based Punjabi boy, Gill tells mid-day he underwent a 15-day training to learn Mandarin to do justice to his part.
"Mandarin is difficult to learn, so nailing the dialect is another story. Initially, it was difficult to understand it, but I worked hard to pronounce the words accurately. I watched many videos in the language with English subtitles. Once I learned the language, I worked on enhancing the diction prior to filming," says Gill, who trained with a Canadian friend.
