According to the source, 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.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Saif will next be seen in ‘Bhoot Police’ where he will be seen playing the role of a ghostbuster. The film also stars Arjun Kapoor, Jacqueline Fernandez, and Yami Gautam in lead roles.

Hrithik, on the other hand, will be teaming up with none other than Deepika Padukone for the first time in his next film. Being helmed by Siddharth Anand, the film is titled ‘Fighter’. The film is reportedly India’s first aerial action franchise.
