Salman Khan dices with death in the latest ad for a soft drink. The Dabangg Khan jumped from the dizzying height of 10,000 feet to pull off a stunt for the ad . The ad for Mountain Dew, shot in New Zealand, has Salman jumping in a 'wingsuit' from a cable car between two mountains.
“Everyone is afraid of something or the other at some point of his or her life. But if you try to run away from fear, you'd be tired and eventually fear will win. So the best way to overcome fear is to face it, run through it because 'Darr Ke Aage Jeet Hai',” Salman said in a statement.
Reportedly, Salman was a bit apprehensive about doing the risky stunt as it required not just manoeuvring oneself in a wingsuit but also pulling the parachute’s ripcord at the right time and distance from the ground.
“Salman has jumped from a mountain which was 10,000 feet high. He did have jitters initially but was confident it would work out well and he would be able to overcome his fears in turn,” Alpana Titus, category marketing director of the soft drink brand, is quoted as saying.
Meanwhile, you check out the ad below. It will begin airing on TV from Friday onward.
