After releasing two movies of MSG series, spiritual leader and actor Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh is coming up with his next movie ‘The Warrior: Lion Heart'. In the flick, he has reportedly performed some death defying stunts.
While filming one of the stunts in the movie the MSG actor survived a fatal accident, as per a report published by a leading daily.
In the scene he had to stand beneath a two-ton 'dhol', which was 21 feet long and 30 feet wide. Everything was going smooth but suddenly to everyone’s surprise, the cable carrying the dhol broke whilst taking the shot, and the humongous instrument swung close to the head of actor filmmaker.
However, Ram Rahim, standing true to the title of his movie ‘Warrior: Lion Heart' completed the shot in first take, even though the dhol smashed right behind him raising a big cloud of dust and sending wrecks flying.

When the MSG actor was asked why he did the dangerous stunt without the body double, he said that harm could have happen to the stunt man as well, and that he was comfortable doing the sequence.
"What if something had happened to the stunt man? Besides, having played 30 sports and performed aerial yoga without any safety harness, I was comfortable doing the scene," he said.
And this is not all, on another day he pulled off another scary stunt with ease. He reportedly hoisted and swivelled a bike weighing 1.5 tonnes
His daughters, Charanpreet and Honeypreet were present on the set but he fooled them saying its time for tea break. When the ladies were busy with tea cups, he completed the stunt
"Others would have played it safe, but he pulled it off," Santosh Thudiyil, DOP (Director of Photography ), was quoted as saying.
The MSG actor also had a successful flight from danger during a sequence involving explosives.
