Vicky wrote on the picture: “Remembering the legend on his 110th birth anniversary. Sam Bahadur.”

‘Sam Bahadur’, released in December last year and told the story of the legendary soldier, how he strengthened the army with his wit and decision-making abilities. The film, which also starred Fatima Sana Shaikh, Sanya Malhotra, Neeraj Kabi, Edward Sonnenblick and Mohammed Zeeshan Ayyub, clashed with the Ranbir Kapoor-starrer ‘Animal’ at the box office, with the latter emerging as one of the biggest blockbusters of the year.

Ranbir and Vicky have worked together in ‘Sanju’ and also the 2018 streaming movie ‘Love Per Square Foot’ in which Ranbir had a cameo.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Vicky, who is fresh off the success of ‘Dunki’ in which he had a special role, has ‘Bad Newz’ and ‘Chhaava’ in the pipeline.
