'Jai Ho' has realistic action and an apt soundtrack

Salman Khan will be fighting bad men by the
dozen in Sohail Khan's Jai Ho. But, his stuntbaazi is believed to have 'realistic' stamped all over it. And when he's not breaking bones, he's inspiring people around him and serenading Daisy Shah. The movie also features Tabu, Danny Denzongpa and Sana Khan.

Thrills galore
Talking about action, there's plenty of maaramaari and less of gunshots. Action director Anl Arasu attributes the thrills to the character and the kind of person Salman is. "The emotion and anger the protagonist feels, is communicated through the action," he says, adding that a scene in which Salman thrashes bad guys when they provoke him by harrassing Tabu is one apt example. "I'm sure that the action will have the audience rooting for Jai (Salman) because of the kind of person he is. The climax was not easy to execute as it was shot at a few locations. Not to forget a bike chase sequence."

In the same vein, Bangalore-based Ravi Verma, who has also choreographed the thrills, says, "Wanted, Dabangg, Bodyguard etc, set a pattern. Salman bhai suggested we go real. So, when the bike rams into the car, it doesn't fly." His favourite is the superstar's first action sequence right after his introductory bracelet scene. "The military action is a new element, which you've to see to know how particular we were about the stunts," he sums up.
