- Quotes
Vedha: Can I tell you a story sir?
Vikram: The silence is too deafening, huh?
Vedha: You look really smart when you smile, sir.
Vikram: But you will look very pathetic if you smile without your front teeth! Don't laugh. Camera is switched off... I'll smash you! Just my arm will swell up a bit... nothing much!
Vedha: Sir, will you treat your guest this way? Vedha no violence sir!
Vikram: Why did you surrender?
Vedha: Just wanted to tell you a story, sir. My own story sir!
Vikram: Your kind of guys just have one story, right? I was down and out... like a mongrel on the mean streets. Did this and that... and grew to be a big man. It's that story, right?
Vedha: Wow! How did you do it sir? Did you watch my whole life unfurl in my own eyes?
Vikram: Can I tell you something about yourself? If I give you 10 crores today in exchange for you quitting your profession you will refuse the offer and walk out. Only to go home and plot a way to grab the money from me! That's you!
Vedha: The same 10 crores, if I give you in exchange for letting me go... Will you let me go sir? You will just send me away and plot to encounter me! That's you, right?
Vikram: Hah, good one!
Vedha: However, you see it, we are both one and the same!
Vikram: How will having just a tail make a cat and mouse the same?
Vedha: Sir, the cat has value only till there's rat problem in the house!
Vikram: But this mouse surrendered fearing the cat, right?
Vedha: But, will any mouse voluntarily walk into a trap?
Vikram: That's right. We're not talking about some simple mouse here, it's actually a bandicoot who has murdered 16!
Vedha: You are not such a simple cat yourself, sir. A cop cat who has encountered 15!
Vikram: 18.
Vedha: Sir, that last encounter... you killed the guys? OK sir. You are in the lead. Killed 18; Killed 16... Convinced?
Vikram: Nah... Criminal! Police... I'm on the right side of line; you on the other.
Vedha: OK sir, I accept. I'm the bad guy; you're the good one. But to project yourself as a good man, you do need a bad man like me!

I am thrilled and excited to know that now Indian cinema specially south Indian cinema is trying their hands in some different plots and subjects to make movie of and are tasting success. The movie 'Vikram Vedha' based on Indian folktale Baital Pachisi, the movie is been not only been executed beautifully but also acted superbly. The movie has all the elements to be termed as one of the greatest movie ever made.
The plot of the movie is good and as mentioned earlier the execution is superb, screenplay of the movie is gripping. The movie is filled with lots of intelligently crafted scenes which i don't want to mention here to avoid spoilers.
Acting is the one of the most strongest aspect of the movie, R. Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi were the two most shining stars of the movie with their superb acting and i would on my personal opinion would rate Vijay Sethupathi slightly better then Madhavan although Madhavan was also superb.
Background music of the movie is superb and gives finishing touch to the crisp screenplay, Climax is another strongest part of the movie and will leave you spell-bounded. A Must watch.
