Saif Ali Khan, Hrithik Roshan react to comparisons with R Madhavan, Vijay Sethupathi ahead of Vikram Vedha: ‘Every star in the galaxy…’

Hrithik also responded to comparisons with Vijay Sethupathi’s performance in the original and said, “There is nothing I can do about it. I have done my part. The only thing in my control is to do my best. That’s all. There’s a prayer I say every day: ‘give me the courage to change what things I can, serenity to accept what cannot be changed, and the insight to know the difference’. Once I know that, I am content.”

In an earlier interview, Madhavan had said that he trusts Pushkar-Gayathri to honour the original and still bring something new to the table. “Saif is very charming and I think he’s going to bring a new dimension to the role that I haven’t seen before,” Madhavan told Pinkvilla, adding, “I trust the team involved to really come up with absolutely new because they have the greatest ability to do it. Pushkar and Gayathri will not give you a normal product. I think it will be a flavour that the Hindi film industry will appreciate and I’m very keen to see what Hrithik and Saif have brought to the role.”

Vikram Vedha will be released in theatres on Friday. The film is a remake of Pushkar-Gayathri’s Tamil original, starring R Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi, and also features Radhika Apte, Yogita Bihani and Rohit Saraf.
