The original neo-noir crime thriller, which was released in 2017, featured south stars R Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi. The movie was produced by Sashikanth of YNot Studios. In the Hindi remake, it is said that Hrithik will play the gangster while Saif will essay the role of the cop. The film draws from the ancient lore of Vikram-Betaal, where a wily gangster manages to escape every time a determined cop nabs him, by narrating a new story drawn from his own life.
