Taapsee to soon begin filming 'Naam Shabana'

The film, earlier titled Meera, will be a part of the Akshay Kumar-starrer Baby franchise. "It is now called Naam Shabana. It is a part of the Baby franchise. You will see me doing a lot of action. I've started workshops. It has been close to three weeks now," Taapsee said in an interview here. 

    
Baby also starred the 29-year-old actress. Naam Shabana is titled after the undercover name of Taapsee's character in Baby, Shabana Kaif. 

    
"I'll keep on doing workshops for the film until the time I start doing action sequences. I start shooting for it right after Pink," Taapsee said.

    
The film will be reportedly helmed by filmmaker Shivam Nair and is being produced by Neeraj Pandey, who directed Baby.

    
Taapsee is currently awaiting the release of Pink, that also stars megastar Amitabh Bachchan.  The drama–thriler is directed by Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury and produced by Rashmi Sharma and Shoojit Sircar and is scheduled to release on September 16.
