New Delhi: Shabir Ahluwalia’s character Abhi is all set to get killed in Kumkum Bhagya by falling off the cliff after getting shot by goons. The actor talked about the thrilling sequence that required him to jump from a height and how he himself did the stunt with the help of safety harnesses.
In the upcoming episodes, we will see a group of goons chasing Abhi and Pragya and while they seem to have escaped from them, the baddies will be shown dashing their car and the two newly-weds will lose consciousness. After they regain their senses, they will try to run away, but Abhi will be shot and seen falling off a cliff.
Shabir chose to do the daredevil stunt himself with the help of safety harnesses and was cool as a cucumber as he gave the perfect shot in the first take.
Talking about the stunt, Shabir said, “When the makers told me about the sequence where Abhi is shot and falls off a cliff, I was genuinely intrigued as it is always fun to do such action-packed sequences. I had to jump off a height for the shot and the makers ensured that all the safety equipment was in place before I shot for it. After going over the whole stunt choreography, I gave the shot and I can’t wait for all our fans to see the stunt on the show.”
When quizzed about Abhi’s on-screen death and if it’s the end of his track on the show, Shabir said, “I have lived the character of Abhi for six years and shooting a sequence where he’s shot and presumed dead is overwhelming. What happens to Abhi next is for our viewers to wait and watch out for. The story of Kumkum Bhagya has always kept its audience on its toes, so this time around as well, they are in for the most exciting twist.”
The twist will come soon after Abhi and Pragya’s wedding and will be a shock to the fans of the show.
