That model-turned-actor, Vidyut Jamwal, made his mark on Bollywood with his spectacular performance in Force is well-known in the industry.
Now, he’s all set to kick-ass, quite literally, in his new film Commando, produced by Vipul Shah.
Currently being shot in Punjab, Commando is believed to showcase stunts unlike anything that has been seen on the Indian screen. A production insider reveals, “Vipul (Shah) has been very involved and enthusiastic about the film and the film is touted to touch a whole new level of action with stunts and sequences that will take audiences by storm. Also, the fact that this film will see lead actor Vidyut Jammwal perform them himself without any leashes, harness or cables is one of the reasons why the film has already been gathering so much buzz within the industry.
The source adds, “Vidyut has been working closely with the stunt team that has been flown in especially from South Africa for the film. This South African team is believed to have worked on some of large format Hollywood action flicks with the likes of Tom Cruise, Daniel Craig, Matt Damon etc. The stunt director and Vidyut have been working closely together to design the stunts and ensure that every stunt creates a thrill unlike anything else seen on the Indian screen. His extensive martial arts background gives Vidyut a very strong understanding and expertise in the action and stunt space as a result of which he certainly has the vision and the ability to make the impact of a stunt truly mind boggling. He has trained across different parts of the world and has been exposed to various international martial arts forms owing to which his design based inputs have been very useful in taking a stunt to a whole new level. He went to Punjab a week prior to his shoot schedule to design the stunts with the Australian team, practiced them himself with his team to ensure that they look fantastic when shot!”
Wow! What more can we say?
