Vikram Vedha is a 2022
Vikram Vedha is a 2022 Indian Hindi-language neo-noir action thriller film written-directed by Pushkar–Gayathri, based on their 2017 Tamil film of the same name and also inspired by the Indian folktale Baital Pachisi. The film is jointly produced by YNOT Studios, Jio Studios, Theme Studios, T-Series Films, Friday Filmworks, and Reliance Entertainment. It stars Saif Ali Khan and Hrithik Roshan in title roles with Radhika Apte, Rohit Saraf and Yogita Bihani in supporting roles. It tells the story of an honest police officer who sets out to track down and kill a dreaded gangster.

Shah Rukh Khan was approached for the film, but declined.In August 2019, it was confirmed that Saif Ali Khan and Aamir Khan[a] would play the police inspector Vikram and the gangster Vedha respectively.Saif differentiated Vikram from Sartaj Singh, another police officer he played in the streaming television series Sacred Games, saying Vikram is "much more dynamic, confident and strong" than Singh who was suicidal, and constantly picked on by others. Pushkar–Gayathri revealed that they were unable to have R. Madhavan reprise his role of Vikram from the original, due to his commitments to Rocketry: The Nambi Effect (2022).
