Actor Vidyut Jammwal is one of the finest stunt performers in the country. His films are known for their action elements and the upcoming film `Crakk` promises to push the boundaries of action in Hindi cinema. Ahead of the release of the film, Vidyut shared a video of him performing a stunt on a train. Along with the video, he also shared a note on how he is inspired by the common man who hangs on trains and balances a family of 4 on a scooter without much thought.
In the video, Vidyut is seen deboarding a moving train and climbing atop the same train without any safety harness or cables. He then runs on top of the stationary train. “I am a trained kalaripayattu martial artist and by profession- an action stuntman. I am blessed and fortunate to live my dream of pushing the boundaries of my skills and entertaining all action aficionados with the stunts I perform. But my inspiration comes from watching videos intently of people hanging on a square inch in a train to work, a family of 4 balancing on a two-wheeler on crowded roads, and people of all age groups running to catch a bus. All this, without any training or safety harnesses. All self-taught, each one a daredevil. And this, almost every day without giving it much thought. This is the true definition of Crackk.
I dedicate my song/ film to everyone who is driven by passion, motivation, and determination to face this every single day.#YOUinspireME,” he wrote in the caption of the video.
He further wrote, “Crakk – The Run! The first game that will make you experience real-life stunts.”TO BE TRIED AT HOME”.

Netizens react:
While some praised the actor for the daredevil stunt, some called it dangerous.
A netizen commented, “IRCTC fine on the way….”
“Is harkat ki wajah se aapko jail bhi ho sakti hai,” wrote another person.
A comment read, “Subway surfers, bhago piche irctc wala bhi aa rha hai”.
A person wrote in detail, “Sorry to see this! This is not fun @mevidyutjammwal ji, youth follow you means U need to understand that they will try things which U do. Just imagine how devastating it may be for the families if any of your little fan will harm him/her self while trying anything like this on a train? Thousands of stunt enthusiasts are now orthopaedically disabled because of stunts on train. I have seen their pain. Kindly stop showing your love for stunt where U are misleading the youth. Promotions for films we all do but for traction we actors should not cross our limits. hope you and every actor/influencers realise this.”
Actor Vidyut Jammwal`s `Crakk` also stars Amy Jackson, Arjun Rampal and Nora Fatehi. The film will be released in theatres on February 23.
