Jacqueline Fernandez

Bollywood actress Jacqueline Fernandez said she yearns to do an action film as she thinks it is empowering to see women essaying such roles on-screen.

The actress, who will be next seen in action-drama film “Brothers”, says she is keen on doing a full-fledged action role.

Her co-stars in the Karan Malhotra movie, Akshay Kumar and Sidharth Malhotra, have done hardcore action sequences in the film.

“I felt so left out. I was sitting at home and all these guys were doing action. I am a sports buff and I have athletic personality. I have been dying to do action for a long time. Hopefully, I will be able to do one soon,” Jacqueline told PTI.

“Action is my favorite thing to do in cinema and I think it is so empowering when you see a women doing it. We have such great and strong women in the industry who can pull off as action heroines,” the 30-year-old actress said.
