Actor Akshay Kumar is always known for his fitness and comedy acting. Another trait of his acting is his self-done stunts, which is also well known worldwide. Probably this is the only reason that he had chosen for the television reality show ‘Khatrow Ke Khilari’ in which 13 Bollywood beauties did stunts under Akshay’s supervision.

This reigning superstar is working in his latest project, an action film by Nagesh Kukunoor. It’s literally unimaginable an action film without some breathtaking stunts, and that too when Ahshay Kumar is there. In Nagesh Kukunoor’s Eight By Ten, there was ample scope for stunts, and all these stunts were done by Akky himself.

The climax of the flick is set underwater in which Akshay was tied up in chains. Most dangerous of the stunts was a sequence where Akshay had to run to the edge of a cliff, which was situated at 160 feet above and then had to take a dive into the water below. According to the sources, one duplicate was used during the rehearsals, but the final take was done by Akshay Kumar himself and that too in one single take. He left the whole unit and the director speechless and stunned with his cool attitude while doing that stunt.

Eight By Ten is a supernatural thriller, made by a promising director Nagesh Kukunoor who is known for his unconventionally good films. Our sources say that Akshay is playing the character of person of huge mental power who can not be hurt. The film also stars Ayesha Takia, Vinod Khanna, Sharmila Tagore, Javed Jaffrey, and Anant Mahadevan. Ayesha Takia is playing the role of Akshay’s wife.
