Photos Vidyut Jammwal shared from his Himalayan retreat
On Vidyut Jammwal's birthday, the actor's fans were in for a surprise. As the action hero celebrated his birthday today, he took a moment to share his unique yearly ritual that has become an integral part of his life over the past 14 years.
Known for his action-packed performances, Vidyut takes a break from his luxurious life every year, to embark on an annual retreat in the mountains for self-discovery, to live a simpler life and to be "reborn".
Vidyut shared images on his social media, giving us a glimpse into his life in the mountains with a heartfelt note, stating, "My retreat to the Himalayan ranges - 'the abode of the divine' started 14 years ago. Before I realised, it became an integral part of my life to spend 7-10 days alone - every year. Coming into the wilderness from a life of luxury and adulation, I enjoy finding my solitude and realising the importance of knowing 'Who I am Not'; which is the first step of knowing 'WHO AM I', as well as fending for myself in the quiet luxuries provided by nature," he said.
"I am most comfortable outside my comfort zone and I tune into the natural frequency of nature, and I imagine myself as the satellite dish antenna - receiving & emitting vibrations of happiness and love.
