I want to become Saina Nehwal: Parineeti Chopra

Besides training at a badminton court in Thane, Parineeti Chopra has spent time with Saina Nehwal and her family to get a first-hand view of the routine the athlete follows.

“I want to become Saina. For that, I want to go to her house and see how she lives. We have met many times, but this time I want to go to her house, live like her and eat like her for a day. She has promised me that her mom will feed me the exact food that Nehwal eats. So I am excited to go to her house and live her life for one whole day," she was quoted earlier.
