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!

A usual cop-criminal story, which is presented with a unique screenplay inspired by Vikramadithan-Vedhalam stories of folklore, where Vedhalam (Vijay Sethupathi) asks a tough riddle to Vikramadithan (Madhavan) to evade encounter. The movie starts with a huge difference between the characters, with Vikram - as an honest cop; and Vedha - as a ruthless gangster. The differences fades away as the movie progresses and goes through a complete karmic cycle, from evil vengeance to redemption, with the support of riddled flashback stories narrated by Vedha. The idea remotely resembles Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction in a rather simpler manner. But this movie is a masterpiece of unique kind.
When you find enough ingredients in the plot, setup and pace of the movie, the unexpected thrilling element that changes the entire course of the movie, at regular interval, will take you by surprise. The pace keeps you hooked and does not give you time to anticipate a twist. That's what have made this movie enjoyable to watch.
No one can fit into the role of Vikram Vedha better than Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi. Especially the comical arrogance of Vijay Sethupathi have created wonders on screen. Even a small character in the movie have owned the role to perfection providing a flawless performances from all sides.
Yaanji song and BGM does the work it was expected to do.
The movie is a rich mixture of class and entertaining elements with astonishing story and narration. In all, this movie is a treat to watch and worth sparing some extra bucks post GST.
