Since the time his Wanted provided a shot within the arm for single screen theatres a few years ago, we’ve seen Salman Khan doing larger than life action in his subsequent hits. The actor is now ready to do stunts very similar to Jason Statham’s Transporter series, in his next, directed by Shirish Kunder.
And that’s why producer Sajid Nadiadwala is alleged to have roped in a stunt coordinator who has worked with Statham in his action films.
Reportedly, Philip Guegan, who coordinated the action within the first Transporter film, is assumed to has been caused board to direct the thrills for Salman.
It is learnt that this idea was suggested by Nadiadwala himself. A well-placed industry source tells us, “From the time Sajid acquired the rights to remake the south Indian hit, Kick in Hindi with Salman, he’s been deliberating how one can not just make it differently, but in addition take it to a different level with the action sequence.
Elaborating at the action sequences, our source adds, “The idea is to have more realistic, raw and hardcore action, such that the viewer can comprehend what the baddies actually feel when Salman kicks or punches them.
Interestingly, larger than life elements may be somewhat more subtle than Salman’s shirt coming off in Dabangg and Bodyguard.” We tried contacting Nadiadwala, but he was unavailable for comment.
