Vidyut Jammwal as Common Man to Superman in Khuda Haafiz
Reportedly director Faruk Kabir chose vidyut jammwal, a trained martial art expert, to play the role of this common man cum superman in Khuda Hafiz. The film, which is inspired from a real-life incident, begins with sameer (Vidyut), who ties the knot with nargis (Shivaleeka Oberoi) in an arranged marriage. It's a no-brainer that sameer is head over heels in love with nargis and the two software engineers quickly build a life together. Their world collapses when they lose their jobs after the recession hits the country. Desperate, they find placements in a fictional Middle-Eastern city called Noman. Khuda Haafiz, which is shot in uzbekistan, sees many local actors fill up the frame. Their presence provides authenticity to the film.
Nargis, who has never stepped out of her city lucknow, gets placed first and decides to travel alone. sameer is doubtful but he has no choice. His worst fear comes to life when his wife goes missing right after landing in foreign country. The lucknow boy follows, doing everything in his power to find her.
Vidyut, who has established himself as a tough action figure right from the beginning of his career, gives feelings and emotions precedence in Khuda Haafiz. Faruk also doesn't overstuff his film with over-the-top action sequences. He makes use of Vidyut's martial arts skills but without turning him into a larger-than-life figure. Our hero gets hurt, cries and shows his vulnerable side to the audience without any qualms.
