Here’s how Abhishek Nigam is preparing to play a stuntman

Sony Sab’s upcoming show Hero- Gayab Mode On will feature Abhishek Nigam in the lead role. The actor will be seen as a stuntman and to get into the skin of his character, Abhishek has been training hard. The actor says, “As an actor, I like to do complete justice to the role I am playing. In Hero- Gayab Mode On, my character Veer is of a stunt-double in movies, whereas the superhero role also requires me to do a lot of stunts. I wanted to do all my stunts by myself and make my characters look as real as possible.”

He adds, “I am a former tennis player and also used to dance. However, because of my studies, I had to put a break on all of my hobbies. Now, here came the challenge – since I have not been a very active sports person, I have lost my flexibility and strength to a certain extent. When I got this role, my aim was to get that back. For the same, and to take it to another level, I have been learning flips, kickboxing and parkour.”
