Originally a dancer from America, Lauren Gottlieb is all set to star in Remo D’Souza’s upcoming flick. Lauren was one of the participants in the popular talent hunt-cum-reality show, So You Think You Can Dance, being aired in the US television. She had participated in the show in 2007.
In the movie, which will mark Lauren’s debut in the Indian cinema, Lauren would be required to deliver her dialogues in Hindi, and according to sources, she has already started taking lessons to in the language. She has also decided to keep her language coach for some more time until she speaks Hindi with ease and expertise.
A source from the movie revealed, “Lauren has decided to keep the coach for a while to help her get better with the language.”
The source also disclosed that Lauren is so besotted by the language that she keeps practicing it at every given opportunity even on the sets. So much so that she keeps insisting that everybody else present on the set also converse with her in Hindi so that she masters the language in as little time as possible
The source added, “The moment her rehearsals end, she is back at her hotel where she sits with her coach. It is difficult for her to learn a new language but she is determined to get better.”
“She is showing great improvement and by the time her dialogue portions are needed to be filmed, she will be quite fluent,” the source added.
The actress-cum-dancer says about her newfound passion: “Yes, I do have a coach who is helping me to learn Hindi. I have to say some dialogues in Hindi and I want to do it well.”
