Koena Mitra is all set to share screen space with British actor Orlando Bloom in English film 'Karna', which will be produced by Pritish Nandy Communications.

The film that is scheduled for release next year and is peppered with a lot of fight sequences will portray the athletic actress as a superwoman. "I have been to Beijing and Hong Kong for the special training", says Koena without revealing much details about the new venture.

Meanwhile, at the home front, Koena is playing a 'meaty' role in an Anant Mahadevan directed thriller 'Anamika,' based on the novel 'Rebecca.'

"I am also working with two new directors and the films are in a nascent stage right now," says the 'Khullam Khulla' girl, the song from the film 'Road' which shot her into glamourdom.

In the five years since she came under public spotlight, she has tried her hand at acting, modelling, stage shows and public appearances.

Looking back at her momentous years in the glamour industry, Koena believes that she has meticulously waited and worked to get big banner films.

"I think big banner names have an added advantage of getting a good response from the audience but one has to work hard also because even such films can fall flat. I have rejected a lot of films and item songs and I think that has been a wise decision," Koena says
