A screenshot from Ferdi Fischer`s BTS video and stills
Jawan, a mass action thriller starring Shah Rukh Khan, has now become one of Hindi cinema's biggest box office triumphs in recent years. The project, which marked legendary Tamil filmmaker Atlee's Bollywood debut, is already stealing the hearts of spectators with superb performances and, most crucially, high-voltage stunt sequences.
Jawan's stunt scenes were devised by renowned action director Ferdi Fischer, best known for his work in The Gray Man and the Fast & Furious franchise. Fischer released a behind-the-scenes video from the Shah Rukh Khan film's set on his social media account, which he later removed.
While sharing the video, Ferdi praised Shah Rukh Khan, action director Spiro Razatos, and Red Chillies Entertainment. He wrote, "Throwback to that unforgettable day earlier this year on the set of Jawan with the King of Bollywood, Shah Rukh Khan! Big ups to Spiro and #RedChilliesEntertainment for this once-in-a-lifetime gig."
Despite the fact that he removed his post from Twitter, fan clubs reposted it, and it has already gone viral on social media. A fan club while sharing the BTS video, wrote, "BTS of #Jawan... Action Sequences. Pure dedication & Hardworking. The Results infront of us.... Another 100cr In Day 2 Loading....SRK GOD OF BOX OFFICE"
