After
almost
two
decades,
Saif
Ali
Khan
and
Hrithik
Roshan
are
all
set
to
reunite
on
screen
for
the
Hindi
remake
of
R
Madhavan-Vijay
Sethupathi's
critically
acclaimed
Tamil
neo-noir
Vikram
Vedha.
While
Saif
will
be
stepping
into
Madhavan's
shoes
for
the
role
of
a
cop,
Hrithik
will
be
reprising
Sethupathi's
gangster
act
from
the
original
flick.
Recently
in
a
tete-a-tete
with
a
leading
daily,
Saif
opened
up
on
playing
a
cop
besides
Hrithik's
dreaded
gangster.
The
Bhoot
Police
actor
said
that
he
has
watched
the
Tamil
version
but
is
keen
to
add
his
own
flavour
to
his
character
in
the
remake.
Speaking
about
reprising
Madhavan's
role,
Saif
told
Mid-day,
"Madhavan
was
fantastic.
I
am
trying
to
get
[rid
of
his
portrayal]
so
that
I
can
play
it
in
my
own
way.
I
will
have
to
recreate
it." Saif
further
said
that
both
his
and
Hrithik's
roles
are
well
demarcated.
"Both
of
us
have
great
parts.
I
will
give
my
best
shot,
and
I
know
Hrithik
will
too.
It
will
be
a
treat
for
viewers.
I
am
looking
forward
to
working
with
him.
We
are
excited
because
it
is
a
wonderful
film.
The
original
Tamil
version
did
well,
and
the
same
directors
are
at
the
helm
for
our
version,"
the
tabloid
quoted
him
as
saying.
Previously
in
an
interview
with
an
entertainment
portal,
Khan
was
all
praise
for
his
co-star
Hrithik
and
said,
"Hrithik
is
a
guy,
who
I
think
is
a
phenomenal
actor,
looker
and
dancer.
He
is
a
general
force
of
cinema,
so
I
have
to
get
up
early
and
pull
up
my
socks."
He
had
further
joked
that
he
wouldn't
have
given
his
nod
for
this
crime
thriller
when
he
had
to
shake
a
leg
with
Hrithik
in
the
film.
Vikram
Vedha
revolves
around
Vedha,
a
dreaded
gangster
who
engages
a
cop
Vikram
into
a
mind
game
and
challenges
his
notion
of
good
and
evil.
Pushkar-Gayathri
who
directed
the
Tamil
film
will
be
helming
the
Hindi
version
as
well.
