The Fall Guy has hit cinemas in India as well as globally. To make the release more special, Universal Pictures India (distributed by Warner Bros. Discovery) paid its own homage to the stuntman community by hosting a special early screening of the film for the Movie Stunt Artists Association in Mumbai.
Filled with a lot of action—punches, flips, and kicks—the power-packed screening was attended by the stuntmen and women of the Indian film industry. The special screening in Mumbai was an ode to David Leitch's idea of The Fall Guy being a heartfelt tribute to the stuntmen industry, as he says, "The Fall Guy to me is really a love letter to stunt performers and to the blue-collar artisans that make movies."
Speaking about the screening held by Universal Pictures India, action director and stunt coordinator Sham Kaushal said, "Firstly, I would like to congratulate Universal Pictures for making a film like The Fall Guy. I would also like to thank Universal Pictures India for hosting a special screening for the Mumbai Stunt Community. This film is extremely special all over the world because it revolves around the subject of stuntmen in the movie industry. The ex-stunt director, David Leitch, has directed this film, and as a stuntman, it is a job that requires extreme commitment, passion, and risk. It is time to celebrate the film that recognises the services of stunt workers. I hope The Fall Guy has an extremely successful run in theatres!"
