Tags: Good, Positive, SomeoneIt's been really nice to see different counties that I might never have visited before.
Tags: Counties, Might, NiceThere's apparently soccer leagues that they've set up with young Indian girls.
Tags: Indian, Soccer, YoungAnd of course in America you've got American football and baseball and all those other ball games, soccer has become a little niche that the women have kind of filled.
Tags: Baseball, Football, WomenAt times those skills were really hard to do because not only was I having to contend with the camera, but I was having to learn these new skills and the ball was always kind of doing what you didn't want it to do. So it got a little bit frustrating at times but we got there.
Tags: Hard, Learn, TimesBefore I started doing the film and when I found out I was going to be doing it, I just decided to pump up on the whole cardio stuff. Just in terms of stamina.
Tags: Film, Started, WholeBut I think it's also hard to get into soccer here. I think purely on a time level on television as well because of the ad breaks. It's something to do with that as well. You can't show a complete soccer match here. Which I kind of find a bit of an odd thing.
Tags: Hard, Here, TimeBut it's a very universal story and the thing is I was reluctant to answer that question because I don't want people latching on to a particular stereotype.
Tags: Answer, Question, StoryBut we had a fantastic coach, Simon Clifford, who runs a British football youth game which teaches Brazilian techniques - which is what we wanted to incorporate into the film. And some of those things we eventually got in.
Tags: Football, Game, WantedFootball is a passion that she holds dear to her heart. She's really going for her dream and there are obstacles in the way, but deep down she knows what she wants, and she pursues that.
Tags: Deep, Football, HeartI was worried people would laugh at me when I started to talk the language, but they were just pleasantly surprised that I could. The sense of humour here is great - once I could have a giggle, I settled down.
Tags: Great, Laugh, SenseI'm a British intern going in. I'm hoping that John will just kind of tackle it from who this person is and what she's about rather than trying to go in on her culture. We need to move a step forward than that.
Tags: Forward, Her, TryingIn London there was an article about all these girls bending it like Beckham, and in India there's this big wave of girls playing football. Wow! I can't believe a movie's done this!
Tags: Big, Done, FootballIn terms of soccer, it wasn't really a thing that girls did. In England it more kind of Net Ball and Hockey and stuff like that in athletics. It's to each their own, really.
Tags: Hockey, Soccer, StuffIn terms of the frustration of my character, I suppose any teenager has probably gone through that, in terms of telling their parents, I want to do one thing, and their parent says no. I think parents sometimes forget that they were children.
Tags: Character, Children, ForgetMy father in the film - which we probably haven't seen in previous movies, and in British Asian movies you could probably count on one hand - he says exactly why, actually why he's frightened for his daughter. He came to this country, England, and had a bit of a crappy time.
