You will be amazed to know that the 28-year-old actress opted to do the stunts herself in 'Sultan'.

According to a report in TOI, she was quoted as saying, ''Earlier, I was very scared as I don't look like a wrestler. We have a perception that wrestlers are of a particular size. I used to often question producer Aditya Chopra how can this happen (looking like a wrestler). But when I did some research I found out that there were people internationally who looked like me."

The actress further said, ''I am very happy I did it as now if I see wrestling, I will come to know how it happens. I am grateful for the opportunity. I was sure we will not use a body double. I felt if I have learnt something, I want to show it properly. I worked hard and I am happy I got to do it.''

Well, the trailer has definitely left us crave for Ali Abbas Zafar's directorial venture 'Sultan' which will hit the theaters this Eid!
