All About Vikram
Well, apart from the name, the film has nothing to do with the old Kamal-starrer Vikram.
One of the much-awaited films of 2022, Vikram is quipped to be an political thriller.
There arereports that all the three actors will have equal importance in the film with separate theme tracks.
There are rumours, Kamal is expected to don two avatars—an elderly look and as an young cop.
Remember Vikram Veda, yes Vijay Sethupathi will reportedly play the antagonist.

The teaser has already crossed 20 million views on Youtube and is going strong.
Director Lokesh has plans to convert the film into a franchise and has plans to announce a sequel at the end card.

The Indian actor exited his television reality show 'Big Boss Ultimate' owing scheduling conflicts with the film.
