Vikram Vedha to be screened at Tokyo International Film Fest

R Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi-starrer Tamil neo-noir crime thriller Vikram Vedha will have its Japanese premiere at the 30th edition of the Tokyo International Film Festival, it was announced on Tuesday.

Y Not Studios, the makers of the film, proudly tweeted: "The big news is here! We are happy to inform that Vikram Vedha has been selected at Tokyo International Film Festival."

Directed by Pushkar-Gayatri, Vikram Vedha features Madhavan as an encounter specialist and Sethupathi as a gangster.

The film, released earlier this year, is an edge-of-the-seat thriller based on the mythical tale of King Vikramadityan and the demon Bethal. It's an exploration of the grey space between good and evil.

The festival will take place from 25 October to 3 November.
