Anushka jumps from Running Train

Like heroes, even heroines are turning brave to perform daring stunts. Although directors are insisting to go for usage of dupes, here is Anushka Shetty completing a risky action feat of jumping from a running train when chased by goons from a helicopter. All this was happening for Anushka’s upcoming action entertainer ‘Bad Boy’ (In Tamil, ‘Alex Pandiyan’) starring Karthi directed by Suraaj.

Film’s shooting is currently held in and around Mysore and a particular sequence required Anushka to jump from moving train. Karthi and Anushka were required to walk on the train’s roof and then jump on to ground when helicopter gets close to them. ‘Anushka is adamant as she wanted to do by herself. So, I made train to travel at a lesser speed. Perhaps, it was dangerous but she jumped very casually taking each of us by astonishment. We spent Rs.2 Crore and 15 days for this alone chase,’ director Suraaj explained.
