action
by
a
female
star
from
any
part
of
the
world...on
a
par
with
Uma

Kill

says
that
she
comes
from
a
sports
family
and
performing
stunt
sequence
was
a
dream
come
true
for
her.
There
is
a
10-minute

Superstar

"super-hero
style".
Describing
the
action
sequence,
director
Soundarya
Ashwin
said,
"It's
a
fight
with
lots
of
acrobatic
action.
Deepika
had
to
go
through
continuous
and
swift
movement
through
various
locations
at
a
lightening
speed.
It's
like
a
car
chase
on
the
feet."
"Bamboos
and
spheres
were
used.
Action
director
Peter
Hein
has
choreographed
this
sequence
like
he
would
have
choreographed
for
any
male
hero.
I
feel
it
will
be
one
of
the
highlights
of
the
film,"
Soundarya
concludes.
