After ‘Pushpa’, ‘RRR’ and ‘KGF: Chapter 2’, ‘Vikram’ could be the next big south Indian film to rule the box office pan-India.
The Hindi trailer of the film starring Kamal Haasan, Fahadh Faasil, and Vijay Sethupathi was released on Thursday. The film, called ‘Vikram Hitlist’ in its Hindi version, will be releasing in Tamil, Telugu, Hindi, Kannada, and Malayalam. Directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, Vikram will hit the theatres on 3rd June.
The action-packed trailer gives a glimpse of high-octane action sequences and shows gangsters, guns, and fight sequences promising a thrilling ride for the moviegoers. The film has all the potential to shatter box office records. Kamal Haasan is said to be playing a cop, while Fahadh Faasil and Vijay Sethupathi play crucial roles and will share screen space with the legendary actor for the first time.
Ranveer Singh appreciated the trailer through a tweet. He wrote, "Cheers to my talented friend Lokesh @Dir_Lokesh and the Legend of Indian Cinema @ikamalhaasan! This trailer is fire (sic)."
'Vikram' is one of the most anticipated Tamil films of this year. The first glimpse of the movie was shared in 2020 and it was supposed to wrap up in November 2021 but was delayed after Kamal Haasan tested positive for the coronavirus.
According to a Hindustan Times report, the makers decided to shoot the entire schedule indoors in a specially built set for the sake of Kamal’s health. A set with more than 50 damaged cars was shifted to Binny Mills, Chennai, for the final schedule where a major action sequence was shot earlier in 2022.
Produced by Raaj Kamal Studios, the film also stars Kalidas Jayaram, Narain, Antony Varghese, and Arjun Das in prominent roles.
