Holding on to the emotional and physical frame of a character during the eight months of lockdown was the hardest part for actor Priyanshu Painyuli, whose film Rashmi Rocket was put on hold due to the pandemic.

Scheduled to kickstart shooting across Kutch, Delhi, Dehradun and Mussoorie in March, the film is being entirely shot in Pune, in November. While Taapsee Pannu — who plays a sprinter — has to do most of the heavy-lifting, Painyuli had his fair share of ordeal to portray an army man. It was not was easy keeping up to the designated fitness levels with no gyms to hit.
