Plot

Vedaa Berwa, a Dalit law student, lives with her family in Barmer, Rajasthan, where Jitendar Pratap Singh is the chief of 150 villages. Vedaa is always being abused and tortured by the upper-caste people due to caste discrimination. Vedaa learns that Jitendra's brother Suyog Pratap Singh has organized a boxing club at the college and decides to train herself in boxing to protect her family.

Major Abhimanyu Kanwar is court-martialed by the Indian Army for disobeying orders to bring Ilyas Kashmiri, a terrorist, alive. Abhimanyu killed Ilyas Kashmiri as he was responsible for the death of Abhimanyu's wife Raashi. Abhimanyu arrives at Raashi's village in Barmer and joins as an assistant sports coach in Vedaa's college. Vedaa is not allowed to enroll in boxing due to her caste and gender, but Abhimanyu sees a spark in Vedaa and begins to train her secretly.

Meanwhile, Vedaa's brother Vinod Berwa is in love with Arati, an upper-caste woman, and they maintain their relationship secretly, but they are caught and a kangaroo court punishes Vinod. Despite this, Vinod elopes with Arati and get married. Jitendar tricks Vinod and Arati into returning to Barmer and has them slaughtered. Vedaa's sister Gehna gets burnt alive, but Vedaa escapes and seeks the help of Abhimanyu, who vows to protect Vedaa.

Vedaa decides to leave for the city court and file a case against Jitendar under Dalit Protection Act. They escape and manages to eradicate Jitendra's men, which includes corrupt cops, goons and Suyog. Vedaa and Abhimanyu reach the court, where Jitendra and his men attack them. Vedaa pleads for her rights before the judges, who agrees. Abhimanyu manages to kill Jitendar, but succumbs to his injuries, thus fulfilling his vow of protecting Vedaa.

Reception

Critical response

Vedaa received mixed critical reviews. On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes , 44% of 9 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 5.6/10. [27]

Deepa Gahlot of Rediff.com rated 3/5 stars and notes "Vedaa is realistic but also has the kind of mainstream elements and action sequences that make a film gripping." [28] A critic for Bollywood Hungama rated the film 2.5 stars out of 5 and wrote, "Vedaa is a predictable fare with a weak climax and an unremarkable second half." [29] Rishabh Suri of the Hindustan Times commented, "John Abraham and Sharvari 's thriller on caste system gets you thinking, delivers a hard-hitting message." He opined that the film marks a significant shift for director Nikhil Advani, tackling the heavy themes of casteism and honour killings with a blend of action and drama, although it falters with unrealistic character survivals and weak music. While John Abraham delivers a passable performance as a grieving officer, Sharvari shines in her role as the resilient titular character, culminating in a climactic court battle that effectively highlights the film's core message. [30] Lachmi Deb Roy of Firstpost gave the film 3/5 stars, remarking, "Flawed, but a brave film on Dalit rights." She pointed out that the film tackles the pressing issue of Dalit rights with a compelling narrative; yet, its impact is diminished by excessive violence overshadowing the social message. While John Abraham delivers a predictable performance, it is Sharvari and Abhishek Banerjee who shine, bringing depth to their roles in a film that ultimately leaves the audience reflecting on societal inequalities. [31]

Saibal Chatterjee of NDTV India rated the film 2.5/5 stars, commenting, "John Abraham's film manages occasionally to tide over its troughs." According to him, the film is a caste oppression thriller that stands out in mainstream Bollywood by centring on a young Dalit woman's struggle for dignity and equality, with John Abraham's character supporting her quest. Despite its reliance on genre tropes and a somewhat diluted narrative, the film effectively highlights the harsh realities of caste violence while showcasing strong performances, particularly from Sharvari as the determined protagonist. [32] Sana Farzeen of India Today gave the film 2.5 stars, stating, "John Abraham's film makes you wish for a fast-forward button." She noted that the film attempts to tackle the significant issue of caste in India but ultimately falters due to a slow pace and underdeveloped character arcs, particularly in Sharvari's titular role. While John Abraham shines in action sequences, the film lacks impactful moments and emotional depth, making it a forgettable experience despite its noble intentions. [33] Troy Ribeiro of The Free Press Journal gave 2.5/5 stars and wrote "It’s a mixed bag—a cinematic attempt to grapple with weighty issues while delivering the action-packed thrills that John Abraham fans expect. The result is a film that entertains but falls short of providing a knockout blow, leaving the audience with a lingering sense that the fight, much like Vedaa’s journey, isn’t quite over yet." [34]

Shubhra Gupta of The Indian Express rated the film 2/5 stars, commenting, "Sharvari breaks the mould as John Abraham gets to slice and dice." In her view, the film presents a commendable yet flawed narrative centered on a young Dalit woman's struggle against caste oppression but ultimately succumbs to the conventional Bollywood trope of sidelining its female lead in favour of male heroism. Despite Sharvari's strong performance and the film's poignant moments, the predictable plot and character arcs dilute its impact, leaving audiences questioning whether Vedaa's journey truly receives the focus it deserves. [35] Sreeparna Sengupta of The Times of India gave the film 3.5/5 stars, stating, "Film with a message, packed with a solid punch." She noted that the film effectively combines a compelling narrative against caste-based injustices with high-octane action, showcasing John Abraham's impressive physicality and Sharvari's emotional depth as the title character. While the film occasionally falls into predictable tropes and features a convoluted climax, its gritty atmosphere and adrenaline-pumping sequences make it an engaging watch. [36] Anuj Kumar of The Hindu wrote "Despite a solid turn by Sharvari, Nikkhil Advani’s attempt to give a real social issue a larger-than-life treatment creates an uneven impact." [37] Amit Bhatia of ABP Live wrote "Nikhil Advani’s direction is commendable, but after a strong start, the film could have achieved more. Unfortunately, it falls short in the second half, which could have been significantly better with more effort. Overall, the movie is still enjoyable. Shawari and the film's subject deserve extra recognition." [38]

Box office

Vedaa grossed ₹6.52 crore on its opening day at the domestic box office. [39] As of 30 August 2024, the film has grossed an estimated ₹25.93 crore at the worldwide box office. [3]
