Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan have only worked together once in the romantic drama Na Tum Jaano Na Hum (2002). Now, two decades later, they are facing off in an epic battle of right and wrong in the Hindi remake of Vikram Vedha (2017).
Written and directed by Pushkar–Gayathri, Vikram Vedha (2022) follows the same template as the first film, and this Hindi version is both intense and exciting. It’s been a while since we’ve seen a proper action face-off between two male leads on screen.
The story follows Vikram (Khan) as the righteous police officer and encounter specialist, who is trying to hunt down Hrithik’s notorious Vedha.
However, Vedha surrenders himself only to tell Vikram a story about his past and how it connects to his present. Vedha tells Vikram, “It's easy to choose between good and bad, but in this tale, both are bad."
Vikram is distrustful and the two men have a tense battle ahead. But who will actually emerge victorious? While the teaser focuses more on Hrithik's wanted gangster, it leaves Khan's cop as more of a mystery.
Presented by Gulshan Kumar, T-Series and Reliance Entertainment, in association with Friday Filmworks and Jio Studios, the Hindi remake also stars Radhika Apte, Rohit Saraf, Yogita Bihani, Sharib Hashmi and Satyadeep Misra.
Vikram Vedha is due to be released on 30 September. Check out the teaser below and let us know if you are keen to see the film.
