Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan on Monday revealed his first look from the upcoming film ‘Vikram Vedha’, a Hindi remake of the blockbuster Tamil crime thriller of the same name.
Based on the folktale of ‘Vikram and Betaal’, the movie tells the story of a tough police officer who sets out to track down and kill an equally tough gangster.
Revealing the first look on his 48th Birthday, the actor took to his Instagram handle and shared an image of himself with a caption, “VEDHA #vikramvedha #SaifAliKhan @radhikaofficial @rohitsaraf @iyogitabihani @pushkar.gayatri #BhushanKumar @sarkarshibasish @sash041075 @chakdyn @tseries.official @tseriesfilms @fridayfilmworks @studiosynot @asinternationalfilms.”
The original Tamil film starred R. Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi, the Hindi remake will feature Hrithik Roshan, Saif Ali Khan and Radhika Apte in the lead role.
‘Vikram Vedha’ was one of the biggest Tamil hits of 2017, which performed well both in India and abroad.
The film will mark filmmaker duo Pushkar and Gayathri’s Hindi debut in both direction and writing.
The Hindi remake comes from Gulshan Kumar, T-Series Films and Reliance Entertainment in association with Friday Filmworks and YNOT Studios Production.
