Vin Diesel's 'deadly' tension with Jason StathamNew Delhi, March 11 (AZINS) Actor Vin Diesel says the tension on the sets of “Fast and Furious 7” was deadly as Jason Statham, the latest to join the franchise, and their characters were required to be in physical face-offs most of the time.

"The scenes where we are intense with one another were not the most enjoyable scenes on the set, because there was a tension that was present. For the more physical face-offs, we had started training a month early,” Diesel said in a statement.

"Thank god we’re friends and we are rooting for each other in real life because the intensity that we had to build against one another was so deadly,” he added.

“Fast and Furious 7” will hit Indian screens in English, Hindi, Tamil and Telugu on April 2.
