The
breathtaking
sequence
with
Hrithik
and
Aishwarya
plunging
away
into
the
deep
valley
in
Dhoom
2,
Uday
Chopra
and
Abhishek
cleverly
fighting
their
way
through
the
narrow
lanes
in
Dhoom,
the
sequence
with
Shah
Rukh
leaping
towards
the
helicopter
in
mid
air
in
Main
Hoon
Na,
ever
wondered
who
created
these
mind
blowing
sequences.
Well
its
none
other
than
Allan
Amin
one
of
the
leading
action
directors
in
our
industry
today.
Dhoom
all
the
way
Allan
who
started
off
his
career
with
films
like
Beta,
Dil,
Raja,
and
Jo
Jeeta
Wohi
Sikander
has
come
a
long
way
and
is
now
nominated
for
the
Taurus
World
Stunt
Awards
for
Dhoom
2.
"It
feels
great
and
is
a
great
honour
to
be
nominated
for
an
international
award".
But
doesn't
the
director
for
whom
the
most
memorable
film
is
Dhoom
feel
that
the
Dhoom
sequels
were
mainly
his
baby
more
than
the
director's,
as
both
the
films
were
entirely
based
on
action.
"I
wouldn't
say
I
was
as
good
as
a
director
for
the
films
because
both
of
us
come
from
two
different
fields
of
filmmaking
but
obliviously
we
were
working
for
the
same
film
together".
Learning
the
act-ion
Talking
about
filmmaking
there
are
schools
to
learn
direction,
acting,
editing
etc.
But
where
does
one
learn
to
direct
for
action?
Is
there
some
special
training
or
one
has
to
rely
on
experience
only.
"Action
directing
is
completely
based
on
experience.
It
takes
years
to
master
the
skill.
It
can't
be
learnt
by
going
to
some
school."
Fear
factor
Apparently
in
the
upcoming
film
Fool
And
Final
directed
by
director
Ahmed
Khan
there
are
some
power
packed
action
sequences
full
of
swanky
vehicles
like
Hummers
and
BMX
bikes.
In
one
of
the
sequences
actor
Shahid
Kapoor
who
plays
Rajaa
in
the
film
had
to
jump
from
the
16th
floor
with
his
BMX
bike.
Wonder
how
that
was
made
possible.
The
director
has
all
the
answers
"Well
Shahid
had
to
practice
a
lot
before
he
did
the
stunt.
After
all
the
practice
he
managed
to
pull
of
the
stunt
all
by
himself".
Imagine
that!
Well
that's
not
all.
The
film
will
also
have
some
dare
devil
stunts
by
Sunny
Deol
and
gang.
The
other
film
Race
which
is
directed
by
Abbas
Mustan
has
Saif
as
the
lead.
Saif
also
had
to
go
through
some
rigorous
practice
for
the
action
sequences.
But
he
wasn't
quite
up
for
the
challenge
when
Allan
told
him
that
he
had
to
jump
from
the
24th
floor
of
a
building
"Yes
in
the
beginning
he
was
a
bit
worried,
but
I
was
there
with
him.
Once
he
came
over
the
fear
he
performed
the
act
and
went
ahead
and
did
it
almost
five
times.
I
am
planning
to
do
a
few
more
action
sequences
with
him.
I
think
in
the
last
couple
of
films
he
had
the
best
stunts."
And
what
would
be
the
most
risky
stunt
that
he
has
performed
till
now
"It's
not
a
question
of
risk
it's
about
betterment.
The
last
film
I
did
was
good
but
the
next
I
do
will
be
better".
So
how
does
Bollywood
compare
to
Hollywood
in
terms
of
action...the
bigger
the
budget,
the
better
the
action
says
Allan
Amir...
