The actress had performed several super-heroic stunts in the movie under the supervision of famous fight master, Peter Heins. the entire movie unit is thrilled about her efforts in the movie.
“Her stunts are never before done by any female artist on Indian cinema. They are on a par with Uma Thurman’s Kill Bill and Angelina Jolie’s Lara Croft,” says the film’s co-producer K Murli Manohar. There is a 10 minute stunt sequence in the movie performed by Deepika which is said to be the major highlight of the film.
