He is gutsy and he is adventurous. Newcomer Tiger Shroff showed off his daring side while filming "Heropanti", in which he insisted upon doing stunts himself.
Produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, the action romance film required Tiger to jump off a 260-feet tall building.
The crew shot the sequence recently on the outskirts of Mumbai and director Sabbir Khan says that it was scary.
"It was extremely scary because Tiger had to first run on a thin ledge, and then jump off the building from the 20th floor. Any minor error could prove fatal, but Tiger always insists on doing all his stunts himself, minus any exterior help like cables etc," Khan said in a statement.
A fresh face from the capital, Kriti Sanon too marks her Bollywood debut with the film, which is slated to release May 23.
