"What would it feel like to jump out of an airplane? What does it feel like to go ninety miles an hour? It's the fantasy and the escapism cinema allows us," added the director.

The director who has pulled off some astonishing stunts in his movie xXx, says it is important to invent and improvise always. Bringing diversities in the arena of action genre is always Caruso is on the lookout.

"It's important to push that particular envelope. If there's a familiarity in a motorcycle chase, this is on the water. If there's a familiarity with skis, we use them in the jungle," stated Caruso.

"I always fantasized about having a great sort of fight in traffic on a moving road where traffic is racing by, and so that was really fun." The director added.

"I thought okay, you've seen elements of it before, but maybe not quite like this with Donnie Yen doing his style of kicking and Vin being the extreme athlete leaping cars." Caruso concluded.
