Eternals: Kumail Nanjiani recounts filming for a Bollywood routine in the upcoming Marvel film

With Eternals just moments away from its release in big screens, excitement and anticipation is at its peak. Meanwhile, let's have a look at what Kumal Nanjiani has to say while filming the much-talked-about Bollywood routine performed by him on the sets of the Marvel entertainer.

In a global press conference, Kumail Nanjiani talked about how he was put on the spot on the sets when asked to perform a Bollywood dance number for the movie. He mentioned that Chloe Zhao (director of Eternals) lied to him about not having to perform a dance routine but a Bollywood action sequence and ultimately made him shake a leg. He recalled how hard dancing was for him and insisted the director assign a choreographer for him. He lauded his choreographer Nileeka for helping him throughout the entire sequence. “Nileeka who did the choreography was wonderful. Worked with me for months and months to do that because it was so outside my comfort zone. But really, you know, ultimately, for me, all that came down to trust,” he said.

Kumail Nanjiani also spoke about how much he put his trust in Chloe Zhao. He mentioned that she believed that he could do something which he felt he couldn’t and this ultimately drove him to perform the dance routine among others.
