Akshay Kumar dares to perform underwater

Akshay Kumar was seen challenging the contestants to perform an underwater act within a time frame of 5 minutes. To add to this, the contestants were not given any time to rehearse for the same. The temperatures were freezing as to 5 degrees and the pool had freezing water.

The contestants were in a jiffy and thought the act cannot be executed in the given time. They were provided with oxygen tanks which could last only till 7 minutes underwater and in case of panic and heavy breathing, it could reduce to 5 minutes.

This sent a panic attack to them and they did not wish to perform the act. Hearing this, the Khiladi Kumar stepped in and volunteered to perform the underwater dance sequence and prove that nothing is impossible if you set your mind to do it.

“Akshay was all dressed up in a tie and overcoat and he immediately asked for a scuba body suit with the oxygen tank and performed the act in the stipulated time. This gave the contestants the needed boast and encouraged them to do the same,” says a source from the sets in Cape Town.
