Gujarati Cinema Gets Its Action Hero: Bhaumik Sampat Wins Hearts in Get Set Go

Gujarat: Following its nationwide theatrical release on August 7, 2026, the Gujarati action-adventure feature Get Set Go from Valmiki Pictures and the Jaliyan Group has opened to strong box-office traction and glowing audience feedback across Gujarat. Directed by Arnav Kumar, the film tells the high-octane story of a band of six bicycle-borne heroes who execute daring heists to help the underprivileged. Moviegoers and critics alike are particularly hailing lead actor, creative director, and producer Bhaumik Sampat for delivering one of his finest performances to date.

Audience members leaving theatres have been quick to praise Sampat’s multi-faceted contribution to the film. Known for performing his own high-risk fights and bicycle chases without stunt doubles, Sampat’s commitment to physical realism has emerged as a major highlight, earning unanimous applause across cinema halls statewide. Proving to be a real hero both on and off screen, Sampat has won over fans not just with his fearless action sequences, but also with his heartfelt dedication to social causes beyond the silver screen. His seamless blend of real-world goodwill and authentic cinematic passion has cemented his position as one of the most grounded and respected figures in modern Gujarati cinema.

Sampat’s journey began in Rajkot before moving to Mumbai, where he launched his career as a contestant on Zee Cinestar Ki Khoj. He subsequently gained formal industry experience and film training in Bollywood, debuting in Sadda Adda as Irfan Habib and featuring in Samrat & Co. as Inspector Khalid. Bringing that rigorous background back to Gujarati cinema, Sampat has consistently applied his formal training to elevate regional storytelling.

With Get Set Go, viewers feel Sampat has raised the bar for regional action cinema. The film seamlessly blends authentic ground stunts with sleek VFX, featuring sequence highlights shot across iconic local landmarks such as the Ahmedabad Riverfront. Sampat credits his formal background in Hindi cinema for building the discipline and craft required to design such high-energy sequences, expressing deep gratitude for the overwhelming love and appreciation the audience has shown for his work.

Get Set Go also features veteran Bollywood actor Deepak Tijori alongside a power-packed ensemble including Jhinal Belani, Raunaq Kamdar, Samvedna Suvalka, Om Bhatt, Sharad Sharma, Dharmendra Gohil, Bhavya Gandhi, Muni Jha, Bhavini Jani, Morli Patel, and Premal Yagnik.

Produced by Bhaumik Sampat, Jhinal Belani, Mitesh Thakkar, Shailesh Thakkar, and Nilesh Thakkar, the production team previously earned widespread goodwill by redirecting part of their promotional budget toward flood relief in Gujarat. Supported by glowing word-of-mouth and praise for Sampat’s lead role, Get Set Go continues its successful run in theatres statewide.
