National Basketball Association India has partnered with upcoming film 'Half Girlfirend' to professionally train actors Arjun Kapoor and Shraddha Kapoor to play the role of aspiring basketball players in the movie convincingly. The two will share screen space for the first time in a film based on Chetan Bhagat's novel of the same name. Both Arjun and Shraddha are reportedly enjoying the training sessions which include handling the ball, footwork, speed, agility, and basic shooting. Director Mohit Suri said, "We are very excited to have the NBA onboard. The trainers have been fantastic and extremely patient with both, Arjun and Shraddha, to ensure that they portray their characters to perfection. We really are having a ball of time during our shoots."
The movie is about small town boy Madhav Jha, who falls in love with an upper class Delhite Riya Somani.
