Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], November 3 : Actor Khushalii Kumar shared her experience of preparing for her challenging role in 'Starfish'.

She shot for 'Starfish' in extremely cold temperatures. Not just this, she even dived into a very deep sea that was about 16 metres deep for her role talking about the same, the actress shares.

"I wanted to give my best for the role, so I did not let these challenges come in the way. The toughest for me was when it came to diving into deep waters. I did those scenes myself under expert guidance. Other than deep sea diving, what was tough was to shoot in extremely cold weather especially when you are drenched. It was probably the passion for the role that kept me going, I enjoyed playing Tara, and it was therapeutic to be her."

Recently, the makers unveiled the teaser.

The teaser takes you into a magical world with euphoria and love.

While Khushalii who plays Tara, a skilled commercial diver, looks stunning, she is also seen battling her demons of the past which only leaves us wanting to know more.
