Actor Abhinav Shukla has a new interest —streetfighting.READ: Abhinav Shukla trains with SAG for his debut film And he is learning it from different martial art instructors. He said, “Everyone learns different forms of martial arts, but how many have that presence of mind when something really happens? Streetfighting is hand-to-hand combat between one person with a group or two individuals. It could happen in a lift when someone suddenly attacks you, or in any place in your daily life.
I got inspired to learn street fighting because I saw a video where a man bashed up some goons to save his girlfriend. I felt that I should also be equipped to face something like this.”
The actor also added that street fighting is quite a strenuous form of sport and it made him lose a lot of weight. He said, “I lost around 4-5 kilos learning streetfighting, so I reduced the number of hours. I would recommend this sport to everyone, because it boosts one’s confidence, makes you alert and equips one with techniques to face such hostile situations.”
