Sanak: Vidyut Jammwal On Creating A Niche With Action Sequences In The Upcoming Film; ‘The Action In The Film Is New, Original And Path-Breaking’
Vidyut Jammwal is all set to feature in the upcoming action-packed film titled Sanak, directed by Kanishk Varma. Now, the actor talks about how the action in the film is new, original and path-breaking
With barriers to film production brought in by the pandemic, filmmakers are coping up with new challenges to shoot their respective projects, considering social distancing and safety protocols. Shooting action films have certainly become more challenging during the pandemic time, as it involves more manpower and extra safety precautionary measures. One of the most eagerly-awaited films of this year is producer Vipul Amrutlal Shah’s ‘Sanak’, toplining Vidyut Jammwal and directed by Kanishk Varma. The action-packed movie poster launched at the beginning of this year has created huge anticipation amongst the audience, especially all the fans of the action genre.
With Vidyut portraying the central character, ‘Sanak’ is certainly going to be an action extravaganza with an equal dose of emotion and drama. Talking about the magnitude of action sequences and scale, the director Kanishk Varma informs, “While the audience has seen and enjoyed some of Vidyut’s signature action moves in films over the years, they will get to see a different side of him in ‘Sanak’. We have mostly seen Vidyut portraying a Commando or Special Force guy in movies so far, but in ‘Sanak’ he plays a common man and he has a past which is related to Mixed Martial Arts in the movie. How he fights as a common man, sets the action tone for the film.”
“The movie features a very different style of action. It’s like balletic action, having a certain rhythm to it. With Vidyut, it becomes easy to shoot because he is such a brilliant martial artist in his own right that he just needs to remember the action choreography. My brief to Andy Long (Hollywood stunt choreographer) was that the action should look like a ballet. We wanted to shoot long takes and that’s where I think the audience will get a glimpse of action the film has,” Kanishk adds.

Vidyut Jammwal shares, “Sanak’ is about a common man’s emotional journey and the action sequences have been choreographed and tailored accordingly. It was a conscious decision to create our own niche using Kalaripayattu as the background of an MMA fighter. The action in the film is new, original and path-breaking. It will certainly inspire action junkies all over the world. The fans of the action genre will enjoy watching the sequences as much as I did performing them.” Also Read: Bipasha Basu Reacts To Sophie Choudry’s Request Seeking Information On Why Plasma Therapy Is Used In India When It Isn't Used Worldwide: ‘Even I Am Lost As Why’
Producer Vipul Shah, who has collaborated with Vidyut for the fifth time, reveals, “With every film, we are trying to create a new style of action with Vidyut and that’s what he has cracked again with Andy Long, who has worked extensively with superstars like Jackie Chan and others. We have created different sets for different action sequences. While every action scene is set within the premise of a hospital, it will still look different since every section is different. That’s how it has become a very unique experience to shoot the action scenes in ‘Sanak’.” Starring Vidyut Jammwal and debutant actress Rukmini Maitra, the movie also features Neha Dhupia in a special performance along with Chandan Roy Sanyal in a pivotal role. Presented by Zee Studios in association with Sunshine Pictures, ‘Sanak’ is a Vipul Amrutlal Shah production, being directed by Kanishk Varma.
