Tiger Zinda Hai: A prized Spanish stallion for Salman Khan’s action sequences

Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif’s upcoming film ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ is one of the most anticipated films of this year. With whatever glimpses we have received of this film so far, we are assured that ‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ is going to be one crazy ride. Especially the action sequences in this film look quite promising.

The first instalment of this franchise showcased the best of action Bollywood has ever witnessed and now, the second instalment is set to take the level high. We have recently learnt that a prized Spanish stallion was called to carry out some of the stunts in ‘TZH’. Surprisingly Salman took only three days to learn all these high-octane stunts carried out on horseback, and shot for them perfectly.

Director Ali Abbas Zafar has quoted on this, “Salman is a trained rider. He returned from the IIFA awards and took just three days to get familiar with his horse, Wado. A prized Spanish stallion, with a gleaming black mane, the horse was trained to cross hurdles, jump over barricades and ride down hills. We have shot risky and edgy portions on horseback with Salman. Getting Wado to know Salman and vice versa therefore, was key to ensuring that this portion of the shoot goes off well. We’ve shot for eight days and getting trained, skilled horses actually made this portion of the shoot fairly easy to execute.”

Salman plays Indian intelligence agent in this film and it has been shot in exotic locations of Morocco, Abu Dhabi etc. 

‘Tiger Zinda Hai’ releases on December 22, 2017. (Also Check: Tiger Zinda Hai : Salman and Katrina have set the date for their trailer)
