We’re not quite sure whether this is Salman Khan being his ‘Dabangg’ self, or ‘sangat ka asar’ from his latest best bud, Akshay Kumar, but clearly, Sallu has turned into B’town’s latest highflying action star, in Akki’s vein. Salman has literally turned into a highflyer in the commercial of a soft drink brand that he is endorsing, even doing all of the dangerous stunts himself.
Shot by an international crew in the remote mountains of New Zealand, the commercial has been created at a whopping budget of over a million dollars. The ad sees Salman wingsuit flying across treacherous terrains, in keeping with the ‘thrilling’ image of the brand. Wingsuit flying is an adventure sport where one skydives wearing a special ‘winged’ suit that allows one to literally glide through the air before deploying the parachute.
Speaking to a tabloid, one of the unit members from the commercial reported that all the stunts seen were done by Sallubhai himself, making it one of the toughest and most dangerous ads ever done by the actor.
Clearly, with Salman revealing his ‘Dabangg’ daredevil side in the commercial, swashbuckling pal Akshay Kumar may have to give up his ‘action hero’ crown soon…
