Music video producer and filmmaker Andy Morahan, who offered the project to her at last year's Cannes Film Festival, insisted that Amy put on some weight for a 'fuller' look in keeping with her character, Nimisha.
A source says, "Amy just wrapped up Rajinikanth-starrer 2.0 and will start shooting for Boogie Man in London by mid-April. She had met a nutritionist during her recent visit to London for a fashion week."
The actress is a big foodie and was thrilled about letting go of a strict diet. "The extra pounds don't bother me at all. The only thing that worried me is that I do not put on weight easily. I have not done any of this before and am looking forward to it," she says.
The film traces the story of a British-Indian teen, Pavan, who struggles with his cultural heritage in modern-day London, falling for a white 20-something actress-model during a '70s-themed exhibition. He becomes obsessed with her, the fashion and music of a seemingly glamorous '70s era, while trying to keep his family's traditions intact. Amy will play girlfriend to Pavan's brother.
