It is not uncommon for Bollywood to reproduce the blockbuster original movies of South Indian cinema. A remake of Tamil crime thriller 'Vikram Vedha' is currently in development. Fans were excited when it was revealed that superstars Saif Ali Khan and Hrithik Roshan are roped in to play the titular characters. Apart from these two, there's one more central character in the film and actress Radhika Apte is in talks to play it.

If everything goes right, Radhika will play the character of a lawyer who is essential to the plot of the film. Her character will be married to Saif's and she'll be a lawayer of gangster played by Hrithik.

A source clsoe to the development shared, “Apart from the two leads, Vikram Vedha has another key character of a lawyer and the team is in talks with Radhika Apte for the same. It’s a complex character, with multiple dimensions – that of a wife to a cop (Saif Ali Khan) and a lawyer to the gangster (Hrithik Roshan). Given her acting abilities, the makers feel she is the best fit for the aforementioned role."

The role was originally played by actress Shraddha Srinath alongside R Madhavan in the Tamil original.
