We all love watching our favourite on-screen heroes performing in high-octane action sequences in movies. Be it the car chasing scenes or powerful fights between hero and villain, a mainstream Bollywood movie is never complete without featuring over-the-top action sequences in it. While most of the Bollywood stars use body doubles for those sequences, there are some who love to take the risk and perform those stunts themselves.
