New film 'Wira' kicks into high gear with its action sequences

Yayan Ruhian (right) and Hairul Azreen rehearsed the fight choreography for months before filming began.

While deep into filming his new movie Wira, director Adrian Teh was so occupied thinking of how to capture the movie’s action scenes effectively and innovatively 24-7, that he was even dreaming about it ... literally.

“In my dream, someone punched me as I was walking down a street. But, my reaction was to ask the person to hit me again because the angle of his punch was quite interesting,” shared Teh, 35, with a laugh.
