Shraddha Kapoor eager to try stunts in films
Actor hangs off 34th floor of hotel for promotional event
MUMBAI:
Aashiqui 2 actor Shraddha Kapoor who performed a gravity-defying stunt for a promotional event recently, is eager to do similar stunts for her films.
“I was very excited because where do you get a chance to hang off the top of a building? So I wanted to try it. It’s very rare to get such an opportunity. Now I’ve had a taste of it,” Shraddha told the media at the Lakme 9 to 5 Weightless Mousse Foundation event.
“My confidence has gone up, so why not do it in my movies as well,” she added.

Shraddha’s pictures, while she was rehearsing for the stunt, had gone viral and she had even tweeted about it. She had performed the stunt without any fuss, smilingly dressed in a pink outfit. Reportedly, she went up the 34th floor of a five-star hotel for the stunt. “I think it’s the first time that anybody is doing anything like this for a brand association,” she said.
“It’s very exciting to have a launch of this kind to get a visual representation of this fabulous product,” the Haider actor said after performing some elegant moves while hanging in the air along with several dancers.

“It’s superb, amazing. I feel anybody who gets the chance to do that, to feel weightless, must grab that opportunity. You have only one life, why not? I enjoyed it tremendously and it’ll be a memorable launch because of that,” she added.
Shraddha also revealed that she has acrophobia and was worried as to how she was going to do the stunt. But the crew assured her that they’ll proceed with the stunt only if she was comfortable. She said that the two short rehearsals over two days made her feel good and confident.
Acting chops: Priyanka bags nod from People’s Choice Award
Her upcoming romantic-action film Baaghi might also contain such stunts by Tiger Shroff, who is known for his agility.
