Vikram Vedha is the Hindi remake of R Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi’s 2017 Tamil film of the same name. It was also helmed by director duo Gayatri and Pushkar, who have given a fresh touch to the remake. But on its first day, Vikram Vedha had a “shockingly low start.” Here’s what Taran Adarsh tweeted, “Vikram Vedha has a shockingly low start on Day 1, despite super-strong word of mouth… National chains underperform, while mass circuits are below par… Business needs to multiply on Day 2 and 3 to cover lost ground… Friday ₹ 10.58 crore. India business.”
