Known for her spirited performance on court, Jwala, who is the reigning Commonwealth Games gold medallist, is now shooting for a dance number in a film, which stars her good friend and actor Nithin.

'Nithin and the producer are my good friends and they told me about this song. I thought they were kidding but after I heard the song, I thought why not give it a shot after all life is one and I like trying out new things,' Jwala told PTI.

'The song is peppy and casual. I was nervous on first day of my shoot yesterday as there were lots of people at the set and it is a different experience. I had to do rehearsals for the steps for a week and it was fun,' she added.

Asked if she wants to switch career to films, Jwala, who won the National Championships 13 times until 2010, said, 'Badminton remains my first love. It is my life and even if I retire I will work for badminton.

Jwala will be sh.
