In the newly released still, Vidyut appeared in a rugged, combat-ready avatar that emphasised his lean, athletic build and intense screen presence. The styling and posture suggested a character who blends physical discipline with a spiritual edge — a take on Dhalsim that played to Vidyut’s strengths as an action performer and martial artist. The image offered the first clear hint about his role in the film and added momentum to the title’s growing buzz.

 

The Street Fighter project marked Vidyut’s Hollywood debut and featured a star-studded international cast, including Noah Centineo, Andrew Koji, Callina Liang, Roman Reigns, David Dastmalchian, Cody Rhodes, Eric André, 50 Cent and Jason Momoa. The film is directed by Kitao Sakurai and aims to bring the beloved gaming franchise to a new global audience with modern storytelling and high-quality fight choreography.

 

Producers positioned Vidyut as a natural fit for Dhalsim because of his background in martial arts and action cinema. Industry observers note that his casting would likely raise expectations for authentic, hard-hitting fight sequences and a physically credible portrayal of the character.

 

The post’s caption — which explicitly announced Vidyut as Dhalsim and confirmed the release date — gave fans something concrete to look forward to. Street Fighter is scheduled to hit theatres on October 16, 2026, and anticipation around Vidyut’s performance continues to build after the character reveal.

 

As the film moves toward its release, Vidyut’s international casting and the first look as Dhalsim positions his Hollywood debut as a key milestone in his career and a talking point for fans in India and abroad.
