When real commando praised reel-life commando Vidyut

Actor Vidyut Jamwal is already in news for his daredevil action stunts in upcoming movie "Commando", and he was further elated when a real life commando called and praised him for his work.

"My father was in the armed forces, and I felt that it was my responsibility to showcase a commando's life the right way. To get a pat on the back from a true blue commando of the Indian forces was extremely encouraging and reassuring," Vidyut said in a statement.

"I am so happy and humbled to represent the brave soldiers who protect our borders and fight for us," he added.
