Actress Aishwarya Rai Bachchan played the lead role in the 2010 film ‘Raavan’. One scene of the film is most memorable, in which Aishwarya Rai Bachchan’s character ‘Ragini’ jumps from a high cliff into a deep abyss. She does this so that her husband ‘Dev’ can stop her from killing her kidnapper ‘Veera’. Although this scene looked very easy on screen, but in reality it was done by Aishwarya’s body double Sanobar Pardiwala. Sanobar has now told that this stunt almost turned into a major accident.

Sanobar recently shared a ‘behind-the-scenes’ video of the film on her Instagram and told how due to an unexpected difficulty, she got stuck on a rock midway during the scene.
While sharing the video he wrote, ‘150 feet. 3.5 sec. A stunt I will never forget. During this cliff jumping scene for the movie ‘Raavan’, due to an unexpected difficulty, I remained hanging on the cliff in the middle for about 30 minutes.

He further said, ‘In stunt work, preparation does not just mean executing the stunt. It’s also about what you do when something unexpected happens. He wrote, ‘Stay calm. Control your breathing. Trust the security system. Conserve your energy. That’s what I did, hanging near a waterfall, breathing slowly, remaining completely still and looking at a view that very few people get to see from that perspective.
Talking about this experience, Sanobar said, ‘Some stunts test the body. Something of the mind. This stunt tested both of them. Let us tell you, later for this stunt he got a nomination in ‘Taurus World Stunt Awards’.
