Have you ever seen these stunt doubles of Bollywood superstars?

Bollywood stars single-handedly fight 20 goons at a time, jump from one skyscraper to the other, pull off high-octane sequences effortlessly, but we would like to break it to you that it is not always them performing those stunts. We will be seeing Shah Rukh Khan executing death-defying sequences in 'Fan'...well not exactly him, but the man standing next to him wearing identical clothes. Sanjay Leela Bhansali's period drama 'Bajirao Mastani' will see Ranveer Singh fiercely guarding his kingdom. But ladies, before you jump into conclusions that it is our 'Do the Rex' guy, then think again, because it might just be a stunt double. Sorry, if we ruined it for you. He believes in perfection. No wonder Aamir Khan opted for a stunt double to perform those action scenes in 'Dhoom 3'. Director Vijay Krishna Acharya, you had us this time! Not only did Aamir play a double role in the film, but also had stuntman to fill his shoes. Are you shattered too? Our 'Khiladi of Bollywood' doesn't like to play by the rules and performs majority of his stunts himself, except on some occasions though. Like in this film 'Chandni Chowk to China'. It hurts to say this out loud but the man jumping off rooftops in 'Bang Bang' was not Hrithik Roshan. But as long as we get to see Hrithik in that avatar, we don't really care. Looks like Katrina Kaif too developed cold feet while performing her stunts in 'Dhoom 3'. Given the uncanny resemblance with her stunt double, we bet you wouldn't have found anything amiss. Dimple Kapadia put on a fierce front in revolutionary movie 'Zakhmi Aurat', but Reshma filled her shoes when performing action sequences. Reshma is Bollywood's favourite yesteryear female stunt double who has been putting her life on the line for three decades. Does "Chal Dhanno, aaj teri Basanti ke izzat ka sawaal hai" take you back in time? Well, Reshma also effortlessly acted in Hema Malini's 'Sholay'. Two Meenakshi Sheshadri's in the same frame? Nobody can stand a chance.
