Sonu Sood On Indian Action Films
In an exclusive interview with Hauterrfly, Sonu Sood opened up about how Indian action films usually don’t have a story and the action sequences feel similar. On being asked about the internet’s reaction to his upcoming film Fateh’s teaser and netizens calling him Indian John Wick, he stated that he thoroughly loved the audience’s reaction. Furthermore, he said, “The whole idea was to make an action film that we all should be proud of. I have been doing action all these years, and I feel there was something missing. Whatever action we did it was like, you are fighting 10/20 goons, and one person hits him in the wall, etc.”

“So, every action director used to do that. I wanted a story behind the whole action. So, every single prop that this guy uses, the body language, everything was professionally trained. We got special people from abroad. Almost 35 to 40 people flew from Mexico and South Africa who are professionals and know how to hold the gun and make it real. So, I wanted to do something different that I haven’t tried before.”
