Yash Raj Films’ Thugs Of Hindostan is the most awaited release from Bollywood as of now. It is the biggest visual spectacle on the big screen that boasts of larger than life, never seen before cinematic experience for audiences this Diwali. Having pulled off an incredible casting coup by bringing together two of the biggest legends of Indian cinema - Amitabh Bachchan (who plays the role of the fierce warrior Khudabaksh) and Aamir Khan (the wily and not to be trusted Firangi) on screen for the first time, this film is the biggest release that Bollywood is all set to witness.
The film boasts of jaw-dropping action sequences that have been pulled off by both Big B and Aamir. They had to undergo rigorous action training before they shot the intricate and exhaustive action sequences.

“So much before we actually went through these sequences, Viktor and Adi had said maybe you should train a bit. So, we are doing a lot of sword moments in the gym. There is a lot of action whether it is jumping off a building, doing summersaults, diving, climbing up. These were all done live. If you have committed yourself to a project then I guess you have to put aside all apprehensions and challenges and do what is been asked to do,” Big B said.
“Just before I did Thugs, I did Dangal. Two of us (Fatima and I) were training for a year and a half in wrestling, and in wrestling the stance is very low. You bend at the waist and you stand as low as possible. So instinctively, I use to stand low, so they had to try and get that out of me. A lot of initial training went into boxing, kicking, rolling, sword fighting. A lot of that was done which gave us a good foundation for this kind of a film,” Aamir added.
