Ajay Devgn and Sonakshi Sinha at 'Action Jackson' press meet

Ajay Devgn will be seen doing a sword fight sequence in his upcoming film Action Jackson, and the actor says it was after a long time that he had to put in a lot of practice for the action scenes. "There is a very stylised sword fighting designed by Prabhudheva, and after a very long time, I had to even practice to do action. So it has come out very nicely," the 45-year-old said at a press conference. Ajay even had to work on his physique while shooting for the film. "The character goes through a change-over in the film. So, first he (Prabhudheva) asked me to put on weight and then I lost 17 kg. It took me two months," he said. Explaining the demand for a change in Ajay's physique, Prabhudheva, who has directed the movie, said: "I asked him to change because there is a bare-bodied sequence." Action Jackson also stars Sonakshi Sinha and Yami Gautam and hits theatres December 5. Text: IANS Images: Sify.com
