Bollywood's rising star Sidharth Malhotra has caught up a new adventure that is currently ruling his mind.
In order to prepare for a scene in his next film 'Ek Villain', Sidharth underwent a beginners' scuba diving course. But the practice left him addicted to the adventure as his interest in the same has grown. The actor now plans to get trained in scuba diving professionally.
"We shot a song underwater in the film. It was a fantastic experience. Those were the best days of the Mauritius schedule. And now I'm looking forward to becoming a certified scuba diver soon," said Sidharth.
For that particular scene in the film, he took some basic training in Mauritius and he was stunned by the beauty of the marine life and corals which he experienced while diving. Hence, he has now decided to take a professional diver's course and explore deeper waters.
Though he is extremely busy, he has decided to make time and get trained.
Sidharth will get trained in Mumbai, but he will be going abroad for his scuba diving experiences.
Sidharth has been in touch with PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors), Lacadives etc, and has been networking amongst the scuba diving lovers.
