Deepika Padukone for the first time ever, will be seen doing stunts without a double and a thrilling car chase in her upcoming action thriller, Race 2 directed by Abbas-Mustaan.

Being her first action flick, Deepika is nervous but thanks Abbasji-Mustaanji, who have helped her gain confidence.

About Deepika, Abbas says that they very keen on casting her from the start, as the role demanded a glamourous and sexy woman to pull off the stunts. Comfortable handling guns onscreen, he says she is one of the hottest action babe in Bollywood.

Even Producer Ramesh Taurani is all praises for her and say he is impressed with her dedication.

The film will also see Saif Ali Khan, John Abraham, Jacqueline Fernandez, Anil Kapoor and Amisha Patel in the action thriller on 25 January, 2013.
