Actress Taapsee Pannu is all geared up for her forthcoming action film "Naam Shabana" and is undergoing workshops to prepare for her role.

The film, earlier titled "Meera", will be a part of the Akshay Kumar-starrer "Baby" franchise.

"It is now called 'Naam Shabana'. It is a part of the 'Baby' franchise. You will see me doing a lot of action. I've started workshops. It has been close to three weeks now," Taapsee said in an interview here.

"Baby" also starred the 29-year-old actress. "Naam Shabana" is titled after the undercover name of Taapsee's character in "Baby", Shabana Kaif.

"I'll keep on doing workshops for the film till the time I start doing action sequences. I start shooting for it right after 'Pink'," Taapsee said.
 

The film will be reportedly helmed by filmmaker Shivam Nair and is being produced by Neeraj Pandey, who directed "Baby".

Taapsee is currently awaiting the release of "Pink", also starring megastar Amitabh Bachchan.

The drama-thriler is directed by Aniruddha Roy Chowdhury and produced by Rashmi Sharma and Shoojit Sircar. It is scheduled to release on September 16.
