Context
Why does this story matter?
Vikram Vedha takes its inspiration from the folktale Vikram Aur Betaal. The original neo-noir Tamil film starred actors R Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi in the lead roles. Hrithik Roshan will reportedly essay the role of a gangster Vedha, while Saif Ali Khan will appear as a cop named Vikram. Vikram Vedha marks Roshan's return to the big screen after three years.

A source close to the development told Bollywood Hungama, "The trailer of the film is not coming. The teaser of Vikram Vedha will be launched and it'll be shown before the shows of Aamir Khan-starrer Laal Singh Chaddha and Akshay Kumar-starrer Raksha Bandhan in cinemas." They also added, "The teaser will not be attached to the prints of these films."
