While shooting a song titled Baawariya for his next Khiladi 786 at a suburban mall, the actor climbed on to the tiny space in front of a side wall on the second floor and broke into an impromptu jig. Akshay tried taking permission from choreographer Ganesh Acharya before attempting the stunt, but despite everyone present telling him this wasn't part of the sequence, the actor persisted.

An eyewitness told TOI, "That spot was like no mans land but Akshay wanted to go there. The director and the producer both warned him saying they didn't have a safety harness . However, Akshay didn't listen ." It was like walking a tightrope so much so when Akshay stepped down, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
