Indian action star Vidyut Jammwal has received praise from his Street Fighter co-stars Cody Rhodes and Andrew Schulz ahead of his Hollywood debut in the upcoming live-action adaptation of the popular video game franchise.
Jammwal will portray Dhalsim, the yoga master and warrior known to fans of the Street Fighter universe. The character is the franchise’s Indian fighter, and the casting marks a significant international project for the Bollywood actor.
During an appearance on the YouTube podcast Flagrant, Rhodes and Schulz discussed Jammwal after watching a video showing the actor entering a meditative state for 15 minutes at a promotional event in Mumbai. Rhodes expressed admiration for Jammwal, praising his presence and distinctive appearance.
Jammwal is widely associated with action performances, martial arts and physical discipline. His reputation for combining combat skills with yoga and fitness has helped distinguish him in Indian action cinema, making his role in Street Fighter particularly relevant to fans of the franchise.
The upcoming film brings together performers from different entertainment industries and is expected to introduce Jammwal to a broader international audience. For fans, his portrayal of Dhalsim is also notable because the character draws on Indian cultural references through yoga and martial arts.
