After her exploits on badminton court, ace Indian shuttler Jwala Gutta is now making her foray into the tinsel town and she will be seen shaking a leg in a dance number for a Telugu film titled &#39;Gunde Jaari Gallanthayyinde (GJG)&#39;. Known for her spirited performance on court, Jwala, who is the reigning Commonwealth Games gold medallist, is now shooting for a dance number in a film, which stars her good friend and actor Nithin. &quot;Nithin and the producer are my good friends and they told me about this song. I thought they were kidding but after I heard the song, I thought why not give it a shot after all life is one and I like trying out new things,&quot; Jwala told PTI. <img alt="Jwala Gutta" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jan/jwala-gutta-sreesanth.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 567px;" /> Jwala Gutta and Sreesanth shake their leg. &quot;The song is peppy and casual. I was nervous on first day of my shoot yesterday (Monday) as there were lots of people at the set and it is a different experience. I had to do rehearsals for the steps for a week and it was fun,&quot; she added. Asked if she wants to switch career to films, Jwala, who won the National Championships 13 times until 2010, said, &quot;Badminton remains my first love. It is my life and even if I retire I will work for badminton. But at same time, if there is something new and if I am comfortable with the director and if he has the confidence on me, then I will give it a shot.&quot; Jwala will be shaking a leg opposite Nithin in the film &#39;Gunde jaari.. Gallantayyinde..!&#39;, which is the directorial debut of Vijay Kumar Konda. The 2011 world champion bronze medallist, Jwala had taken a six-month break after London Olympics but she has already started her training and will make her return to international badminton at the German Open which starts on February 26. &quot;I have already stared training on January 10. Initially it was difficult to get up at 5:30 in the morning but now it has again fallen into place. I am focusing on my strength and fitness,&quot; she said. Jwala will be partnering Prajakta Sawant, who had filed a case against national chief coach Pullela Gopichand at Bombay High Court accusing him of mental harassment.u00a0
