"Vikram Vedha released, and it didn't fare well at the box office at all. And the feedback that I got was. Of course, there are different parts of me that are conflicted about what I should learn from this, and I think it'll dawn on me much later, but right now I know that it is not, maybe, something that people like to see me do," Hrithik told Galatta Plus in an interview.

Directed by filmmaker duo Pushkar-Gayatri, ‘Vikram Vedha’ was a Hindi remake of the 2017 Tamil film of the same name. The original Tamil film starred R Madhavan, Vijay Sethupathi, Varalaxmi Sarathkumar and Shraddha Srinath. The film was a big hit.?

When prodded about what it is that people do not like to see him do, Hrithik added, "Maybe I am taking myself too seriously. I think I should.. Maybe I'm not allowed to do roles where I'm not catering to my fans who want to see me in a certain film, with a certain backdrop, in a certain way. If I choose to do those kinds of films, I have to treat them differently, as in myself - economically, budget-wise, cost-wise. These are the things that you learn. I will think twice before taking a film that does not cater to fans of the star, but when I read something (worthy, I may not say no."?

The actor had also termed the film “cerebral,” stating that it lacked the "flamboyance" of War, the "heart" of Super 30. Earlier this month, Hrithik marked his presence at the Red Sea International Film Festival 2022 in Jeddah as well.

Moving ahead, work wise, Hrithik will share screen space with Anil Kapoor and Deepika Padukone in a film, titled ‘Fighter’.
