The recent release of Vidyut Jammwal’s action-packed film “Crakk- Jeetegaa Tho Jiyegaa!” hasn’t garnered much favor from audiences or critics.
However, the actor finds himself in the spotlight for a different reason altogether. In a recent tweet, Jammwal called out a critic for allegedly soliciting bribes. He went further to accuse the critic of accepting bribes from others within the industry and shared a screenshot demonstrating that he had been blocked by the said journalist.
Vidyut Jammwal‘s tweet was accompanied by a screenshot revealing that he had been blocked by the critic in question, alongside a direct accusation against them.
He stated, “Asking for a bribe is a crime, and giving one is a crime too!! My crime ‘is not giving???'”

Amidst speculation from netizens about the identity of the individual mentioned in the critic’s post, clarification was provided that it wasn’t about any star kids or superstars. The critic emphasized that the post was directed towards someone who, despite not being a star, viewed themselves akin to Bruce Lee or Jackie Chan.
Responding to queries about whether the post referred to Akshay Kumar, the journalist clarified that it was aimed at a “mental case who needs to consult a psychiatrist.”
For those unfamiliar, “Crakk” also features Arjun Rampal, Nora Fatehi, and Amy Jackson in prominent roles. The film’s official synopsis outlines the journey of a young man from Mumbai’s slums to the realm of underground extreme sports.
