Baaghi 2 will bring back Tiger Shroff in action mode. The actor looks uber hot while performing stunts and flaunting his perfect abs and beefed up muscles n the trailer. But the new generation action star feels that the stuntmen who make him look good on screen do not get their due credit. 

Tiger along with director Ahmed Khan and Disha Patani turned up at an event to share a special video of action sequences in 'Baaghi 2', where the actor bared his heart in front of the media. According to IANS report, the actor “I feel there should be more safety and respect paid to the stuntmen who are working with us constantly.” He also said, “Every day they are risking their lives. They are literally stepping out of their house, saying ‘goodbye’ to their family without knowing if they will go back home alive. Considering that, they get very less recognition.”

Baaghi 2 looks like a treat for all those who love to watch death defying stunts and action on the big screen. Filmmaker Ahmed Khan also spilled the beans on how shooting action scenes has become easier with the help of VFX. He said, “Earlier there was no VFX so actors used to jump directly and they used to fall on the boxes. The risk was huge. They could break their legs. Today, it is much improved … stuntmen, fight masters who come from abroad for our films are highly professionals. So I would say there is 25 per cent safety from their end, 25 per cent safety that comes from the actor who prepares himself for extensive training. That is how we secure 50 per cent of the safety while shooting any action films now.”

With the success of Baaghi 2 and Baaghi 3, Tiger aims to do something for the recognition of stuntmen who work behind the scenes to make actors look good on screen.  “If our ‘Baaghi 2’ does well and ‘Baaghi 3’ gets a good business and I can establish myself, I would like to do something for the recognition of all our stuntmen who work with us. I want to have some special awards or something that could give them recognition,” he Tiger Shroff. 

 “Baaghi 2” releases on March 30.
