MUMBAI: If there’s one space that actor Akshay Kumar remains undefeated in its hardcore action!

The actor’s forthcoming film Housefull 2 will see him parachute onto the sets located in a residential suburb on the outskirts of London, flagging off the sequel of the 2010 film.

The movie is produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and directed by Sajid Khan.

Khan said, "Akshay has never done anything like this before and he’s really excited. I’m cool because I know the greatest stuntman in the country will pull off the shot effectively. I couldn’t have asked for a better first shot."

After getting the required permits to shoot live in the residential area Akshay took free-fall tests to parachute into the opening scene of Housefull 2 that the team yet remains tight-lipped about.

"The scene is integral to the story and not just a publicity gimmick. We’ve kept it strictly under wraps because with six cameras stationed on the sets, we want to capture people’s reactions as Akshay jumps down from the heavens above," Khan added.

The movie will be released by Eros International and also stars John Abraham, Rishi Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor, Asin, Zarine Khan, Shreyas Talpade, Jacqueline Fernandez and Mithun Chakraborty.
