Vicky Kaushal shares video of IMA cadets
Today, on November 25th, Vicky Kaushal took to Instagram to share a video of the Indian Military Academy cadets doing pushups. The actor revealed that he had shot an important sequence of Sam Bahadur at IMA with them where they finished their drills with 10 rounds of knuckle pushups. After that, it became a ritual for the film’s team to do pushups after packing up.
He said, “Shooting at the #IndianMilitaryAcademy with the cadets there for one of the important sequences in the Film. They said they would finish their drills with 10 knuckle pushups… so it became a ritual for me as well… no matter how tired we were at the end of the shoot… “pack up” would only be called when I did those 10 knuckle pushups with them. Such spirited boys at the IMA!!! One of the most disciplined and inspiring places I have been to.”
