A particular scene required Akshay to jump from the balcony of one building to another. Since even a slight mistake could have been fatal, the team advised Akshay to use cable wires to perform the stunt. The actor, however, refused, asserting he didn’t need any help.
“Akshay had to jump from one balcony to another for a scene. It was advisable to use cables for it since the stunt was quite risky and one small slip would have him badly injured. But Akshay refused and did the stunt himself, minus the cable wires,” reveals a source from the production team.
