Aishwarya had performed some stunts herself in the Bollywood film Dhoom 2 earlier. Now the actress recently attempted some risky stunts for Mani Ratnam’s Raavan..  According to sources, the actress did a stunning action sequence without a body double, and the scene was shot in Athirampally Falls near Chalakudy in Kerala. The scene features her jumping into the 80 feet falls from a big rock.

The rocks at the falls are known to be slippery and the water flow is turbulent. Mani Ratnam considered using a male stuntman dressed as a woman for the scene, but Aishwarya came forward and said she was willing to do the stunts herself. After taking a few monitor shots with a dummy of Aishwarya’s weight, the actual scene was canned in one take. Ash executed the scene with perfection, the source revealed.
