The Story in Brief
Rishabh Sawhney says months of training helped him perform the physically demanding action scenes in Nagabandham, where he plays Ali and Ahmad Shah Abdali. In an interaction with Etimes, reported by The Times of India, he said two international action directors trained the cast in close combat and sword fighting. He named Kecha Khamphakdee and Vlad Rimburg.
Sawhney also credited the Indian stunt teams and said safety was the biggest lesson from the shoot. The film’s action sequences require different physical styles for his two characters, with Ali involved in ground combat and Abdali using a sword. Nagabandham follows his role as Azhar Akhtar in Fighter.
The Indian Opinion
The publicity around Nagabandham risks turning training into proof that the film must succeed. Months of preparation and specialist stunt teams can improve performance, but they do not settle whether the dual role works as drama. Claims that action alone makes Sawhney’s performance a career best should be judged against the finished film, especially how clearly audiences can distinguish Ali from Abdali beyond their fight styles.
