Bhoot Bangla Actor Manu Menon Opens Up On Viral BTS Video Of Akshay Kumar’s Fall During A Daredevil Stunt

Bhoot Bangla actor Manu Menon has opened up about the now-viral behind-the-scenes (BTS) video featuring Akshay Kumar and him, where the former appears to get injured while performing a high-octane stunt.

In the recently released BTS clip, Akshay Kumar is seen performing a dramatic mid-air jump kick with his co-actor Manu Menon. However, the sequence doesn't go entirely as planned. While landing, the actor loses balance and falls, appearing to hurt himself in the process.

Recalling the sequence, Menon says, "We had one take to get this shot right, so he came flying in fast and the impact was hard. It's not easy to get right back up from a stunt like that but that's why he is who he is. That was just our first shot and after a short break he was ready for a long day of a physical shoot. That was more motivation for me, to see him bounce back so quickly."

The buzz around Bhoot Bangla continues to intensify, with the much-awaited horror-comedy marking the reunion of Akshay Kumar with filmmaker Priyadarshan after a gap of 14 years-a collaboration that has previously delivered several cult entertainers.

Adding to the appeal is a strong ensemble cast featuring Paresh Rawal, Tabu, Rajpal Yadav, and Asrani, alongside Wamiqa Gabbi, whose on-screen pairing with Akshay Kumar has already piqued curiosity.
