Indian-Canadian actor Karam Batth who will be soon playing the role of boxing legend Kaur Singh on the screens in the upcoming film ‘Padma Shri Kaur Singh’, says that it wasn’t easy to essay the role of a national hero. "Initially I wasn''t very confident about this role, because if once decide to take up this challenge, there would be no looking back. It would require me to give up on everything and focus on getting under the skin of my character," Karam said to a leading news agency. Karam was extremely nervous yet immensely excited when he met the legend for the first time.

"But it was his warm and welcoming personality that broke the ice within seconds. He helped me in understanding the character well. He gave me all the necessary information - specifics about the way he talks, walks, behaves, his aggression, fighting techniques, and much more," he added. "I used to work out for hours under a personal trainer and my diet was under checks. But finally, my hardwood indeed paid off. This journey taught me a lot as an actor and I feel honoured to play the living legend of our country," he said.
