Be it the lifting of ideas from the West or difference in technical expertise, Bollywood often shows that it has a long way catching up with Hollywood. Recently, a scene in a Hindi film was termed as the ‘greatest action sequence in history’, and even better than the Hollywood classics. The scene in question was from the film Coolie No 1, and the ‘praises’ for a scene involving Varun Dhawan saving a baby was out of disbelief, but more in mockery.

The scene involved Varun Dhawan, who plays a coolie in the movie, saving a child who gets stuck on the railway tracks while a train approached. Varun jumped from the bridge onto a train and ran almost the entire length of it to reach the front of it.  

If that was not all, he then jumped off the train and saved the child, fraction of a second before it passed through.

Some quipped why the other passengers did not do anything while Varun did so much.  Many recalled that it was better than some of the similar sequences done in South cinema, by Nandamuri Balakrishna and Rajinikanth, among others.
