Actor Vidyut Jammwal once again left the internet stunned after sharing a powerful and unconventional video showcasing his devotion to ancient martial traditions.

Known for pushing physical and mental boundaries, Vidyut’s latest act sparked a mix of awe, concern, and admiration among fans.

A Ritual Rooted in Discipline and Tradition

On Tuesday, Vidyut took to Instagram to post a video in which he is seen seated on a stage, dressed in traditional attire—a green shirt, white dhoti, and a black cloth tied around his head. As rhythmic drum beats played in the background, the actor grooved with intense focus while several people stood around him.

The moment that truly caught attention came when Vidyut picked up two burning candles and calmly poured the hot, melted wax onto his face, continuing to move to the beat without flinching. The clip ended with a woman approaching him and placing a blindfold over his eyes, adding to the dramatic and ritualistic atmosphere.

Sharing the video, Vidyut wrote, “Honouring the ancient Kalari Payattu and Yoga that empower us to transcend limits.”
