Movie Verdict
The movie Vikram Vedha was officially adapted from the Tamil blockbuster of the same name. The same directing team that brought you the original is responsible for this update. The screenplay and characters of Vikram Vedha are well-written and engaging. The first half of the film is devoted largely to establishing the main characters, while the second half is when the real action happens. The second act contains numerous shocking scenes. The film’s simplicity belies a few unexpected twists that provide the necessary tension. When we compare Hindi to Tamil, we can notice that there have been very few alterations and additions to the former.
Hrithik Roshan is a perfect fit for the part of Vedha, both physically and in terms of his acting ability. Hrithik gave a terrific performance as Vedha, and even if you haven’t seen the Tamil original, you’ll adore him. Vijay Sethupathi, who portrayed the same role in the original Tamil version, may look exceptional in the light of comparisons to the original. Saif Ali Khan excels as the honest cop Vikram and does a great job in the film. The actress who played Saif’s wife, Radhika Apte, was outstanding as always, despite the fact that her role had very little screen time. Both Rohit Saraf and Sharib Hashmi performed a great job. The film’s supporting cast also delivered commendable performances.
Vikram Vedha is stunning from a technical standpoint. The music by Vishal-Shekhar is enjoyable, and the scene in which Hrithik Roshan performs the song “Alcoholia”—with its implausible dance sequences—should be entertaining to watch on the big screen. One of the best parts of the film is the original score by Sam CS. The cinematography by PS Vinod, which features some ominous visuals that raise the mood of the plot and keep the audience engaged on the movie, is another major asset. The fight scenes are spectacularly staged and acted out. The movie looks like it cost a lot to make.
The brilliant Pushkar–Gayathri directing combination worked their magic once more. They translated Vikram Vedha’s charm well into Tamil, and the little adjustments they made didn’t detract from the film’s overall appeal. I’m glad the filmmakers stayed true to the source material and didn’t try to add their own spin.
Vikram Vedha succeeds as a commercially successful film because it features exciting action sequences, a compelling narrative, and outstanding turns from its leading actors. It’s imperative that you see this film in a theatre.
