Hrithik Roshan conveys a sense of self-acceptance while acknowledging that he won’t be able to match Vijay Sethupathi’s portrayal of the character in the 2017 original.

This Friday, Hrithik Roshan will return to the big screen after a long absence. His latest movie, Vikram Vedha, will be his first to be released in more than three years.

He also talked about how he handled criticism for being compared to Vijay Sethupathi, who co-starred with R. Madhavan in the South movie of the same name. The 2017 Tamil hit, Vikram Vedha, was remade by Pushkar and Gayathri.

The actor said he never approaches a character with such concerns in mind because it has never been his objective or something he should have to deal with in his mind. When asked if he was prepared for the parallels to Sethupathi, the questioner asked.

“That is what I did when I was doing Agneepath when everybody was worried about the comparisons, but when I like something, I take it and give it my all. Then whatever it is, it is okay,”. Hrithik reaffirmed.

Hrithik seems to be aware of the fact that he won’t be able to match Vijay Sethupathi’s portrayal of the role in the 2017 original.
