Realising that the superstar had rarely dabbled in martial arts on screen, Heo incorporated elements of the art form in the stunts. “My team and I watched some of his previous films, [studying] the action he performed in them. But here, we have [developed] a different style. We have added martial arts, sword fighting, and fight sequences with props.”

If Prabhudeva roped in Heo to bring a fresh perspective, he also brought National Award-winning stunt choreographers Anbumani and Arivumani, popularly known as Anbariv, to design an elaborate set-piece for the climax. The high-octane scene, which sees Khan in a face-off with Hooda and his gang, was shot in Goa. Interestingly, in their early days, the duo had choreographed a stunt for Khan in Bodyguard (2011). Anbumani says, “After venturing out as independent action directors, we [harboured a wish] to direct a spectacular action scene for Salman. With Radhe, we got the chance and have choreographed a [grand] fight sequence.”
