Actress Anna Jobling Traumatized by 22-Hour Pickleball Filming Session

Malaysian actress Anna Jobling admits to feeling traumatized by pickleball after enduring a grueling 22-hour filming session for the drama "Dink! I Love You." The intense, non-stop shooting required to capture visually appealing scenes left her with a negative association with the sport.

"To get beautiful scenes, we had to shoot for 22 hours without stopping. I became traumatized when I had to do the same thing over and over again," Jobling stated. She added that she wasn't particularly fond of pickleball and lacked skill, leading her to abstain from playing for six months post-filming.

Despite the challenging experience, which included moments of wanting to give up, Jobling expressed gratitude for not sustaining any physical injuries. She emphasized the importance of maintaining stamina through adequate hydration, rest, and a positive mindset, especially when working with a supportive cast and crew.

"Of course, we get tired quickly, but we have a cast, crew, director, and a positive, fun, and energetic environment. Even if we're tired, we don't mind as long as the work is done," she explained. The drama also features actors Arfie Shah, Aedy Ashraf, Dottie, and Juzzthin.
