Actor Akshay Kumar is in action mode - on one hand, he is hosting "Khatron Ke Khiladi 4" while, on the other, he flagged off the opening scene of "Housefull 2" by shooting a parachute stunt on the outskirts of London.

"Akshay has never done anything like this before and he's really excited. I'm cool because I know the greatest stuntman in the country will pull off the shot effectively. I couldn't have asked for a better first shot, " said director Sajid Khan.

After getting the required permits to shoot live in the residential area, the 43-year-old took free-fall tests to parachute into the opening scene.

"The scene is integral to the story and not just a publicity gimmick. We've kept it strictly under wraps because with six cameras stationed on the sets, we want to capture people's reactions as Akshay jumps down from the heavens above, " said Khan.

Co-produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and Eros International, "Housefull 2" also stars John Abraham, Rishi Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor, Asin Thottumkal, Zarine Khan, Shreyas Talpade, Jacqueline Fernandez and Mithun Chakraborty.
