Anil Kapoor who won over television audience with his character of Jai Singh Rathod in 24, is at it again. This time, the actor is upping the stakes by taking on more challenging stunts. What’s more, he has denied help from a body double while indulging in the high-octane sequences for the show.

A source close to Anil reveals, “While performing a high octane action sequence for the series, the actor has refused to use a body double. Anil wanted to perform that particular sequence himself. He assured the director and stunt co-ordinator that he will do the stunt accurately and he did.”

The last season of the show saw Anil saving the life of the future Prime Minister and in the second season he will have the responsibility to protect the nation. Sikander Kher and Ritu Shivpuri will be seen playing grey shades in the series.
