In his bid to create the real melodrama of the 1980s, Sajid Khan has made Ajay Devgn fight a tiger in his ready-to-release "Himmatwala" remake.

The actor says this is his second stint with a big cat. However, this time he did it with proper safety measures.

"This is the second time I have fought a tiger in life after 'Vijaypath'," said Ajay and added: "We took complete safety precautions. And now it is much more easier (to do such scenes)."

"In 'Vijaypath' when I fought a tiger, there was no safety. Him and me in the cage, and fighting," he added.

Sajid said that on the sets of "Himmatwala", the tiger became so friendly with Ajay "that he was freely moving on the sets"
