In an interview with the Times of India Hrithik Roshan opened up about being compared with the original Vedha (Vijay Sethupati) from the 2017 Tamil film Vikram Vedha.
“For me, that’s not been my aim. It is not a thought in my head that I need to do with. I have just taken a part and done it like how I would do it. That is what I did when I was doing Agneepath when everybody was worried about the comparisons, but when I like something, I take it and give it my all. Then whatever it is, it is okay,” Roshan said.
Vikram Vedha stars Roshan playing a gangster while Saif Ali Khan plays the cop in the film. Radhika Apte too plays a pivotal role in the movie. Vikram Vedha is an official remake of the Tamil action thriller of the same name directed by Pushkar and Gayatri who directed the original film as well. Roshan will next be seen in Fighter co-starring Deepika Padukone.
