Indeed, “Na Tum Jaano Na Hum” was named after one of the hit songs in “Kaho Naa… He’s going to kill you on screen, because he’s the hottest thing in Bollywood.’ And I said, ‘Well, it doesn’t matter.’ And it didn’t matter.” Khan was coming off the massively influential “Dil Chahta Hai” (2001) and Roshan was white hot after his debut as a leading man “Kaho Naa… The pair last co-starred in “Na Tum Jaano Na Hum” (2002). “And it frightened me a little bit, which is always good.” And I didn’t really care,” says Khan. And I knew that I would be challenged, and I’d have to work hard in terms of the way I looked at my fitness and action to try and keep up,” Khan told Variety.

What is right and what is wrong? [Radhika Apte](https://indianexpress.com/about/radhika-apte/) reprises Shraddha Srinath’s role, doing a nice job of the ‘vakeel’ who plays footsie with her cop spouse. The cop’s wife being a lawyer to the ungodly was a nice touch, but her dance-a-deux with the devil wasn’t as believable. Hindi cinema has forgotten how to do this, and it’s taken ‘outsiders’ like Pushkar-Gayatri, whose web series ‘Suzhal’ has been one of the best offerings on the web this year, to show them the way. It had a crisp pace, the undercurrent of humour, the smart plotting which made light of its density, and all of it overlaid by that zippy theme tune, ‘Vikram Vedha’ was a cracking good time at the movies. Most importantly, the lead duo has more swag than swagger, and that makes all the difference.

'Vikram Vedha' releases in cinemas today, 30th September · Viewers are loving the pairing of Saif and Hrithik · The film got tremendous response on social media.

Sashikanth and Vikram Vedha will hit the big screens globally on September 30, 2022. The story of Vikram Vedha is filled with twists and turns. Vikram Vedha is an action-thriller, written and directed by Pushkar-Gayatri.

Hrithik Roshan is utterly commanding in Pushkar-Gayathri's endlessly twisty remake of their own Tamil film.

Or the climactic scene where the wild fancies of the plot are grounded by the drab practicality of a factory floor. War had felt like a corner turned for Roshan, and his total command of the screen in Vikram Vedha bears this out. Vikram says early on, “There’s only right or wrong, nothing in between.” By the end, it’s clear everything is in between, and right or wrong are just stories we tell to make ourselves feel better. Why does Abbas (Satyadeep Mishra), Vikram’s friend and fellow cop, have a change of heart? One sequence, in the flashback of the first story, is especially beautiful. Vinod have a useful rule of thumb—if you don’t have anything special to offer with your choreography or fight skills, keep the setting pretty. In a witty sequence (a possible nod to Se7en), Vedha comes to them, surrendering himself at the station even as preparations to nab him are in full swing. Vikram and his team are ‘encounter’ cops, summarily executing gangsters in their efforts to catch the notorious Vedha (Hrithik Roshan), wanted for 16 murders, including a prominent MLA. Vikram guesses correctly—he punished the one with the power, not the one carrying out commands. The question he poses Vikram is: did he kill the man who ordered an attack on his younger brother, or the one who actually did the maiming? From the start, you can sense the presence of a writer pulling the strings. Vikram Vedha is occasionally a director’s film.

Across languages and regions, the film is currently expected to make around Rs 40 crore, which could increase to Rs 50 crore as the day progresses. The film is expected to make more than Rs 20 crore in Tamil Nadu alone. The film’s box office potential is also being impacted by the release of director Mani Ratnam’s historical epic [Ponniyin Selvan: I](https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/tamil/tracing-the-journey-of-ponniyin-selvan-mgr-kamal-haasan-mani-ratnam-8175332/), which is opening to sold-out shows in Tamil Nadu as we speak.

Vikram Vedha movie review: It's not easy to be a part of a remake of a hit film. Comparisons are natural and it is difficult to surpass the originals by all ...

The Hindi remake is quite right there - with the same story, director and credible performances by its lead but somehow left a middling effect on me. I would still say that the first half is far pacier than the second half even though a lot more is unraveled during this point in the film. Based on the premise of the original 2017 Tamil film, the Hindi adaptation has similar lines and scenes but it also cashes in on Roshan's superstardom and inherent swagger. The story is loosely based on the popular folktale of Betal Pachisi, which was about a king called Vikramaditya and a ghoul called Betal. Director duo Pushkar-Gayatri make their Bollywood debut with a remake of their Tamil hit film 'Vikram Vedha'. 'Vikram Vedha' review: Director duo Pushkar-Gayatri make their Bollywood debut with a remake of their Tamil hit film 'Vikram Vedha'.

While Vikram Vedha received mixed reviews from audience and critics, Ponniyin Selvan: I or PS: I garnered applause from the audience.

After listening to these stories, Vikram’s understanding of right and wrong begins to alter. This was a historical book which was adapted from a book. Far far better than the original. Just want to say, audience forget theater don't dare to go near to its poster, the criminalized Sasta remake will make you vomit. Witness the carnage on screen. They've gone berserk in the cat and mouse chase game!!! Pushkar and Gayatri have weaved an intricate web with this story and its nothing short of a masterpiece. I can say this with confidence because I have watched the original one and still was hooked and intrigued and entertained!!! Overall, Vikram Vedha is a frame to frame remake of the original Tamil version, those who haven’t seen the OG, they may like the film more. Kadel wrote, “Vikram Vedha is an errant let down, lousy remake of the original. Film critic and trade analyst Taran Adarsh gave the Hritik Roshan film a four-star rating and gave it a one-word review of “terrific.” Adarsh wrote, “Engaging.

That is primarily because the movie was made with a steep budget of Rs 410 crore (if you add interest costs it would be around Rs 500 crore, say others). We have negotiated the price of tickets of a blockbuster film to be like those of popular films, so that more audiences can come and see the movie,” says a senior executive associated with ‘Vikram Vedha’. But the bulk of it is in Tamil Nadu, with the north accounting for only around Rs 20-30 lakh. [films](/topic/films) could spell big gains for theatre chains, which have been buoyed by the success of ‘Brahmastra’. The films’ producers feel that while ‘PS1’ will dominate screens in the south, (it has not been promoted much in the Hindi heartland), ‘Vikram Vedha’, which will be shown only in Hindi, will hold sway in the north. And locking horns with it for theatre space will be Mani Ratnam’s ‘Ponniyin Selvan 1’ (‘PS1’), a Tamil historical extravaganza on the Cholas, which has been also dubbed in Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam and Kannada.

Vikram Vedha box office day 1 prediction: The Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan film is expected to nett ₹10 crore in India for a modest but promising ...

The number is unlikely to go any higher though, which means it will stay behind Brahmastra ( ₹32 crore) and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2 ( ₹14 crore) in the list of highest openings for Hindi films this year. If word of mouth is strong, the jump on Saturday can be substantial, which will eventually determine the film’s fate and lifetime collections. Vikram Vedha, directed by Pushkar and Gayatri, is a remake of their own 2017 Tamil hit, which starred Vijay Sethupathi and R Madhavan. This is the third-highest advance booking for a Hindi film this year, behind Brahmastra and Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. But what works in Vikram Vedha’s favour is that the film has been received well.

Pushkar-Gayatri's reboot of their 2017 hit improves on the original thanks to two zingy lead performances from Saif Ali Khan and Hrithik Roshan.

A likely hit for an industry that sorely needs one – and a story that bears, and even improves with, repetition. It is crucial to Pushkar-Gayatri’s mischievous project that the cop gets it from all sides, and Roshan displays such phosphorescent, screen-torching charisma that our sympathies are regularly redistributed. Vikram Vedha was a Tamil hit in 2017, a twisty, semi-subversive thriller in which a bad-ass Chennai cop and a wily criminal swap stories rather than blows or bullets.

[Telegram](https://t.me/koimoidotcom) Well, we wonder if KRK still stands by his words or if we will once again see him reviewing Bollywood films? Thank you all for trusting my reviews n making me the biggest critic in the history of Bollywood. A third user wrote, “Chashma Thoda Bada Waala Lagake Dekho”. A while back, self-proclaimed critic KRK took to Twitter to share his review of Vikram Vedha. Hrithik and Saif starrer has been receiving rave reviews since morning.

Mumbai– Sussanne Khan has said that 'Vikram Vedha' starring her former husband Hrithik Roshan, is by far her most favourite movie ever.

The film is directed by Pushkar and Gayatri and produced by Bhushan Kumar & S. Sussanne took to Instagram, where she shared a poster of the film and wrote: “RA RA RA RAaRooooom this is by far one of my favourite movies ever!!! Congratulations @hrithikroshan@saifalikhan_online and the entire team for this tremendous entertainer!!!”

Pushkar–Gayathri's film is a refreshing take on the battle between good and evil, told flamboyantly with well fleshed-out characters and performances.

It particularly irks in the third act when the motivations of Shatak and Chanda (Yogita Bihani) — a crucial cog in the tale — demand a little more clarity, and the real villain of the piece, a little less predictability. He keeps Vikram smart, and us invested, even when the writing on the wall says that the mouse has more meat in this game of cat-and-mouse. There are sights and sounds of Awadh in the dialogues and backdrop, but it largely remains an outsider’s gaze. A little more nuance in the depiction of the workings of the UP Police would have added to the flavour of Kurma Nihari, the popular Lucknow dish, that becomes a plot device. The premise of Vikram Vedha also reminds one of Kapoor’s 1951 film Awaara, where the judge repeatedly invokes the idea that those who are born to criminals end up on the wrong side of the law. These seem like out-of-syllabus questions for a mainstream entertainer to address, but Gayatri and Pushkar answer them with sensitivity and urgency, within the framework of a festival tentpole.

The good thing is, the film picked up in the afternoon shows with evening and night shows showing much better occupancy rates. However, it looked a like a film which we call “lambi race ka ghoda” at the box office. In the recent past, films like Bachchhan Paandey, Jersey and Laal Singh Chaddha tanked at the box office.

The music and choreography, though, are the weakest links of the film. The songs obstruct the narrative flow and play absolutely no part in advancing the plot. Vinod effectively brings out the essence of Kanpur and Lucknow as he holds the pulse of the leading lines in his frames. The lines between right and wrong blur in the film, so the cinematographer P.S. This is perhaps the first time that Hrithik plays a menacing gangster on screen, and boy, he does it with absolute finesse! There are hardly any body shots of Hrithik flexing his muscles, yet he shoulders the film with his portrayal.

For as they say, there is always some bad in the good and some good in the bad. “The devil is in the details,” Vikram says at some point in the film.
