The Hindi remake of Tamil superhit Vikram Vedha is wrapped up. Starring Hrithik Roshan and Saif Ali Khan as the protagonists, Vedha and Vikram, respectively. In Tamil, Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi played their roles to perfection, winning many accolades. The film’s success is mainly because of the gripping screenplay, which in turn was inspired by Bhetala-Vikram stories. Hrithik took to his Twitter to share his joyful sadness because of the completion of the film’s shoot.
“Beginning the journey of Vikram Vedha came with its own set of external challenges, with the pandemic and uncertainties… but looking back, it all contributed to our prep and performance. For me, this journey has been as frightful and as delightful as a skydive. Using Vedha as an opportunity of letting go, align with what is, finding joy in being less than, and being wrong, has felt refreshingly new for me. It’s been a journey of remolding, rewiring and trusting. Time and my audience will tell if my instincts were in the right place or not. But regardless of victory or failure, I am so so full of gratitude for the clarity & vision of my directors Gayatri and Pushkar. The passion they possess for the story and the sparkle in their eyes every day that we were on set, was a silent motivation for me to give it my best as Vedha. For me, becoming Vedha, good or bad, wouldn’t have been possible without the powerful presence of Saif Ali Khan as Vikram, in addition to all my co-actors esp Rohit Saraf, Radhika Apte & Yogita Bihani who gave me an impetus as a performer. As we called it a wrap-on set, my mind is flooded with all the happy memories, testing times, action, thrill and hard work we all have put into Vikram Vedha. Doing a little excited-nervous dance in my head today.. As we inch closer to our release date. Nuff said. See you at the cinemas” wrote the star on his Instagram.
