Vidyut Jammwal: My turn to give as good as I got

Vidyut Jammwal launches production house as he completes a decade in Bollywood; hopes to empower new talent.

It has been an uphill journey for Vidyut Jammwal, who forayed into the Hindi film industry as a villain in Force (2011) and went on to become an action star with movies like Commando and Khuda Hafiz under his belt. As he completes a decade in Indian cinema today, the actor has launched his production house, Action Hero Films, with Abbas Sayed on board as co-producer. 

Having kicked off his career as an outsider, Jammwal says the banner is his endeavour to create a platform that encourages new talent and brings interesting stories to the big screen. “The viewers have loved me in every character. This time around, with their blessings, I am taking on the role of a producer. It’s my turn to give as good as I got. I see this as an opportunity to empower talented people,” he states. The actor-producer, who is currently shooting for his next Sanak, is simultaneously sifting through scripts that can be backed by the studio. Besides his natural inclination towards action movies, he intends to tell high-concept stories belonging to diverse genres.
