We've heard of actors across the industry going all out when it comes to prepping up for their characters and roles. From Deepika, on getting a particular accent in Chennai Express to Aamir Khan learning how to tap dance for Dhoom 3, actors do everything possible to get into the shoes of their characters and justify them to the fullest. One such actor is television superstar Hina Khan, who took up a very challenging role with the psychological thriller 'Damaged 2' - an enthralling web series that can be watched for FREE, on MX Player.

Trying to stay true to her character of Gauri Batra, the role required Hina to smoke in various scenes and she is a devout nonsmoker.

Speaking about her prep for the role, she said, `For somebody who runs away when someone smokes in the room, I'm that kind of a person, I tell people not to smoke in the same room, I tell them please go out and smoke. But I have for this character, smoked for the first time ever and it was very difficult for a person like me. But Adhyayan, my Director Ekant, they really helped me and gave me an open choice that if I want to, I can choose to not smoke and manage to shoot it without that. But I was like if it is written, it must be written for some purpose, so if it makes the character look more beautiful, more complete, so I decided to do it. It was difficult but I managed to do it.`
