Stunt master Supreme Sundar says it was not copied
Earlier, it was said that the corridor scene was copied from the Korean movie Old Boy. Stunt master Supreme Sundar, who choreographed these action sequences, clarified it was not copied from anywhere.
"The director wanted a real fight in this scene. This scene is not copied from anywhere. This kind of style is common in Korean films. But comparing it or calling it a copy is not right," he said.
Furthermore, he revealed it was quite tough to shoot this. "This scene was shot in London. At that time, the set was ready at minus 8 degrees temperature. These two actors had to perform the action scenes shirtless. It was a very difficult scene, but both of them completed it very easily. This is a sign of their strong dedication."
Directed by Indra Kumar, 2001 movie Aashiq starred Bobby Deol and Karisma Kapoor in the lead. Interestingly, it was a remake of Telugu movie Gulabi.
