Though performing stunts is not new for Akshay Kumar, this time the actor attempted something new. He surprised everyone on the sets of Shirish Kunder's Joker by pulling a fire stunt himself.

Director Shirish Kunder posted a Twitpic on his account and wrote: "JOKER on location : Akshay Kumar surprises everyone by doing the daring fire stunt himself."

In the picture, Akshay Kumar is seen doing the stunt wearing a dhoti-kurta with a western touch. His co-star Sonakshi Sinha looks visibly concerned about Akki. Other people from the unit look excited while Akshay shows his daredevilry.

And we thought, we'll get to see Akshay's funny side in Joker.

Directed by Shirish Kunder, the film will also have 3D effects.
