‘Don’t think much, just leap into it’, is probably the motto of Shabbir Ahluwalia when it comes to attempting stunts! He proved his daredevilry approach after grabbing the title of being the ultimate Khiladi in the last season of Khatron Ke Khiladi. Considered to be a natural stuntman in life and known for his passion for adventurous activities, its adventure and the adrenaline rush that gives him a high. After proving his mettle in Khatron Ke Khiladi, one could only wait to see his next leap of achieving a record and inking his name in the Guinness World Records - Ab India Todega.
The record attempted by Shabbir on “Longest motorcycle ride through a tunnel of fire” was comparatively death defying considering he is not a trained stuntman and similar attempts can cause severe injuries. The only existing record was held by Clint Ewing who set the record in a distance of 200 ft. Shabbir, who had earlier given taken a pledge to break a record rode through the fiery tunnel and set a new record that surpassed the old one by covering a distance of 224 ft 8 inch. With this, Shabbir not only fulfilled his wish but also kept his promise given to his fans. Talking about his stunt, an elated Shabbir Said: “After supporting and cheering my fellow Indians in their attempt to break a record, their enthusiasm and courage was my inspiration to challenge myself. I have been an avid follower of the show since my childhood and this was the perfect stage for me to attempt a record myself. When I started hosting Guinness World Records – Ab India Todega, I had instantly made my mind of breaking some record like many others. Now that I have broken the record, I still cannot believe that I am a Guinness World Record Holder. Guess I need to break another record to come back to reality!” Stay tuned to watch Shabbir’s record- breaking event on Guinness World Record - Ab India Todega Saturday 9 PM only on COLORS’ |
