Tiger Shroff, who is known for his daredevil stunts, will be seen pulling off a parkour sequence in the upcoming film War. It has him jumping on about 100 houses! The scene was shot in a small town Matera in Italy. 

Director Siddharth Anand says, “There is no one better than Tiger at parkour in India and we wanted to exploit his outstanding skill. We flew to a small town in Southern Italy because it provided us with the best landscape to unleash Tiger.”

He adds that Matera, uniquely, has houses that have been built next to each other, which are separated by small bylanes. “Their proximity to each other makes it an incredible spot to perform parkour, and Tiger was thrilled with our choice of location. He flew in four days before the shoot and practised three days straight jumping from one rooftop to another and got used to the terrain. The parkour sequence that Tiger pulled off was extremely difficult because he had to jump on top of at least 100 houses. We shot an entire day with him and he exhibited the best parkour moves that anyone has ever seen in a movie,” Siddharth elaborates.
