Debutante Mashhoor Amrohi performed a daredevil stunt in Singapore last week for his Bollywood film 'Hum Laakh Chhupayein Pyaar… Magar'.

The 24-year-old writer-director-actor shot this sequence on himself at the renowned Orchard Street.

The scene required him to leap onto a speeding motorbike which crashes against a racing car. He ends up saving a toddler and impressing his on-screen girlfriend in true Bollywood filmi style.

Mashoor, who refused to use a body-double for the sequence said, "The audience today is very clever. They can't be fooled or taken for granted with special effects or a stuntman. And after all, even a body-double is a human being. If he can do it, so can I."

Since the sequence proved a danger to others, Mashhoor took extra precaution with body padding and medical back-up.

The boy even rigorously worked out in his gym for two months prior to this stunt.
