Considering action is one of Salman Khan’s strengths, director Prabhudeva knew he could up the ante in Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai. That the story of an encounter specialist, who has unconventional methods of seeking justice, lent itself seamlessly to action was an added advantage. So, in came South Korean stunt director Myeong-haeng Heo, and out went the traditional kicks-and-punches routine.   

Weeks before shooting the fight sequences, the action director — who has worked on The Good The Bad The Weird (2008) and Extreme Job (2019), among others — familiarised himself with Khan’s style of action, thus understanding his strengths and weaknesses. He says that the superstar worked closely with his team to perfect the stunts. “Salman was always enthusiastic about the new sequences that we would suggest. We would do a couple of rehearsals with him, and he was adaptive,” says Heo, who forays into Bollywood with the ZEE5 film that also stars Randeep Hooda, Jackie Shroff and Disha Patani.
