During spare time in her shoots Masumeh used to give tips on self defence to her hair stylist friend from Australia. Sometime back she got a call from Selena and she could not stop thanking her enough for saving her life. Selena was holidaying in goa ; when someone tried to molest her. Goa has been notorious for such activities lately.
That's when her self defense tips given by Masumeh came in handy; she fought back and managed to hit him a few blows and get away from there.
To the credit of the goa police they caught him within the hour and put him behind bars. A much relieved Selena who is in Australia now has promised to come back and receive further training from Masumeh.
Masumeh has been receiving martial arts training since she was a kid. Following Akshay's footsteps, she is beginning her parkour training soon. She could be the first Indian actress to do so. Do we see our own Lara Croft in the making.
