Ajay Devgn isn’t just cracking jokes for Dhamaal 4, he’s also looking after his co-stars. Last week, the actor stepped in during a risky shoot at Malshej Ghat after a cliff scene made the team uncomfortable, especially Arshad Warsi.
Ajay Devgn Redesigns Dangerous Cliff Scene In Dhamaal 4 For Safety
As per a Mid-Day report, the scene involved Ajay, Arshad, Riteish Deshmukh, and Jaaved Jaaferi hanging from a cliff in a comic setup. The team had planned to shoot it using VFX. Just days before, Ajay and director Indra Kumar chose to film it for real, which made some actors nervous—especially Arshad, who had to hang from the edge.
A close source from the production team revealed, “It wasn’t supposed to be a live-action sequence because the location can be precarious. But Ajay and Indra ji changed the plan. It’s a key comic scene, so using body doubles wasn’t possible. They had to deliver dialogues mid-air.”
Ajay quickly took charge. He teamed up with action director RP Yadav to rework the entire stunt. He kept the scene simple, removed risky moves, and explained everything clearly to each actor.
The source explained, “These actors are in their 40s and 50s. Some have old injuries. Ajay understood that. He made sure everyone knew how the harnesses, safety nets, and emergency medical units would be in place during the shoot.”
Arshad Warsi’s Newfound Respect For His Co-Star
Ajay led from the front and stayed on set during every step of the shoot. He made sure each actor felt safe before filming. The team shot the scene across four days once everyone was confident, especially Arshad.
After wrapping up the shoot, Arshad shared a heartfelt note on Instagram. In his post, he said that he had a ‘newfound respect’ for Ajay.
Dhamaal 4 started filming in March. The makers haven’t dropped an official update yet, but fans are already buzzing.
