Suniel Shetty's daughter, Athiya Shetty is gearing up for her debut venture, the remake of Subhash Ghai's 1983 hit, Hero.

We hear, for the role, the lady needs to put on five kilos, for which she is undergoing training and is even under the guidance of a nutritionist. Apparently, while she did a lot of auditions, the pretty lady was commented to be tall and lean, which they thought would be perfect for an international model. However, they suggested that for the Indian masses, she needed to get some flab here and there.

Directed by Nikhil Advani, the film which is set to go on floors in November, will also see Sooraj Pancholi, son of Aditya Pancholi make his debut.
