WATCH THE MAKING OF FARHAN AKHTAR’S AZIZ ALI – THE TOOFAANI BOXER THAT WE CANNOT WAIT TO ROOT FOR
Amazon Prime Video unveils a special glimpse into the passionate actor owning the demanding role in Toofaan
Makers of the film have released a special behind-the-scenes video that gives us fans a sneak peak into what actually went into making this power-packed film. In the video, Rakeysh Omprakash Mehra says, “Boxing is a very unique sport. It’s not a sport for everyone.” And we totally agree! If there was anyone who would do justice to a role like Ajju Bhai aka Aziz Ali, it is none other than Farhan Akhtar. Farhan says in the video, “We didn’t train for a film, we trained to be a boxer!” The actor, not only learnt how to land a perfect punch, but also took some brutal hits in the process without any stunt doubles.
Completely dedicating himself from ground zero in boxing, the producer cum ace actor transformed himself in a way that is just unbelievable and his preparation – unmissable!
