SHIVAM SAHU

Vedaa (2024), directed by Nikkhil Advani and starring John Abraham and Sharvari Wagh, is an action drama that tackles the deeply ingrained caste system in India, but it has received mixed reviews.The movie tells the story of Vedaa, played by Sharvari Wagh, who dreams of becoming a boxer to challenge the caste oppression she faces. John Abraham plays Abhimanyu, a court-martialed army officer who becomes her mentor. The film attempts to blend intense action sequences with a stark commentary on caste-based violence. Abraham's character is largely silent but communicates powerfully through action, making for some gripping moments. However, the film's pacing is often slow, and the screenplay struggles to maintain engagement, leading to a disjointed narrative.
