Rozlyn Khan has slammed Vidyut Jammwal’s viral naked tree-climbing stunt, stating that nudity should not be confused with bravery and questioning Bollywood’s growing reliance on shock value.
Actor Vidyut Jamwal recently grabbed massive attention after a video of him climbing a tree completely naked went viral across social media. With his private parts strategically covered using an emoji, the clip left netizens divided — while some praised his confidence and physical control, others questioned the intent behind the stunt.
Now, Mumbai-based actress and PETA model Rozlyn Khan has weighed in strongly, calling out the act and labelling it unnecessary and attention-seeking.

Reacting to the viral clip, Rozlyn did not mince her words. In a sharply worded social media post, she wrote,
“Being naked is not called being daring. Being naked is simply called nudity. Some people at least get naked for money, but you chose to get naked for adventure and call it a great deed.”
She went on to add a dose of sarcasm, questioning the larger narrative being built around the stunt.
“You should be given the Bharat Ratna! Why stop there — why not go naked to the moon too? What nonsense. This brother wants to tell us that he ‘fears’ nothing, but is only proving that he ‘wears’ nothing.”
Rozlyn further remarked that the industry seems to be increasingly leaning on shock value.
“The industry has nothing left except nudity and controversial news,” she added, echoing a sentiment shared by several social media users.
In the viral video, Vidyut Jamwal is seen carefully climbing up and down a tree with controlled movements and intense focus. Explaining the act, the actor captioned the post by referencing Kalaripayattu, stating that he practices Sahaja once a year — a yogic discipline aimed at returning to natural instinct and deepening one’s connection with nature. According to him, the practice enhances balance, body awareness, and mental clarity.
Rozlyn Khan, who recently embraced her birth name Rehana Khan, is widely admired for her resilience beyond cinema. A stage-4 breast cancer survivor, she has transformed her personal battle into advocacy, becoming a strong voice for cancer awareness. Rising to prominence as a Gladrags model, she later became a prominent PETA face and went on to act in films like Dhama Choukdhi, voice the lead in the Savita Bhabhi animated film, and appear on crime shows like Crime Alert. Known for her fearless opinions, Rozlyn has consistently spoken her mind — even when it sparks controversy.
Vidyut Jamwal, on the other hand, remains one of Bollywood’s most recognised action stars, best known for the Commando franchise. His dedication to martial arts and real-stunt action has earned him a loyal fan base, though this latest viral moment has once again reignited debate around where physical discipline ends and provocation begins.
