Noah Centineo isn’t just here for the fight scenes. He wants to see India — the real one. Not the postcard version, not the curated tourist trail of Jaipur or Goa. The kind Vidyut Jammwal says most outsiders miss: the mountains, the rough roads, the quiet corners where the country breathes differently.

And he’s not alone in wanting that. Jammwal, who shares screen space with Centineo in the upcoming Street Fighter film, revealed in a recent interview with Variety India that his co-star is genuinely curious, sincerely so. About what lies beyond the usual highlights. 'He’s searching,' Jammwal said.

'Not just ticking boxes.' That’s why the Indian action star already has a plan. If Centineo ever lands on Indian soil, Jammwal’s ready to take him off the beaten path: Rishikesh, the hills of Uttarakhand, the north-east. Places where the roads aren’t six-laners and the pace isn’t set by hotels and tour guides.

'You don’t need to show them India is developed,' Jammwal added. 'The rough roads also exist. I want him to feel it.' The film, a live-action take on the video game franchise, hits theatres on October 16. Centineo’s interest in the country doesn’t seem like a PR stunt, it’s framed as a personal curiosity, a desire to understand a place beyond its surface.

Whether that journey happens in person remains unconfirmed. But if it does, it won’t be a sightseeing trip. It’ll be an education. One road at a time.
