Crakk director Aditya Datt opens up how he roped in 8 international athletes to pull off adventure sports, from rock climbing to mountain biking, in the Vidyut Jammwal-starrer!
Vidyut Jammwal’s upcoming action sports drama movie Crakk is making the headlines for all the right reasons.
Crakk Director Aditya Datt Picked 8 International Athletes For Adventure Sports
The actor who is also the producer of the movie has done his all to lend authenticity to the film. The team has brought on board eight international athletes, who will be competing with Jammwal in the film.
Director Aditya Datt reveals, “After scouring over 200 athletes worldwide, we hand-picked what I call ‘The super eight’. There are 24 others who play integral roles in the film, each showcasing prowess in multiple sports.”
From Rock climbing, Freestyle Skiing To Mountain Biking In Crakk
The eight athletes include South Africa’s Alfonso Orosco, an expert in slacklining, American free runner Kacper Lipski, China’s Liana Hu, who was chosen for her command over martial arts, and Russia’s Katarzyna, who is a trained Parkour artist. Tomasz Przybylik, Martin Espanola, Milsoz Jarmolowicz and Lukasz Nowak complete the octet.
In Crakk, the athletes, along with Jammwal, are seen participating in a series of deadly sports—from rock climbing to downhill mountain biking, from obstacle races to freestyle skiing. With the cast’s safety being Datt’s primary concern, he made them undergo extensive training so that they gain expertise in different sports before he called for action.
“Vidyut and the eight athletes spent over 30 days in Poland prior to filming, honing their skills and perfecting the stunts. It was during this time that trust was built, and skills were shared,” states the director.
Release Date Of The Vidyut Jammwal-Starrer
Arjun Rampal, Nora Fatehi and Amy Jackson also star in the action entertainer. Crakk – Jeetegaa Toh Jiyegaa! is produced by Vidyut Jammwal and Action Hero Films and is directed and written by Aditya Datt. The movie is scheduled to hit theatres on 23rd February 2024.
