24 Mar 2020

EkVillain the 2014 hit which featured SidharthMalhotraas a reformed criminal avenging his beloveds murder, is all set to get a sequel. The film was one of the few hits in Malhotras career and definitely gave his career a much-needed boost. It therefore comes as a surprise to know that SidharthMalhotrahas turned down directorMohitSuris offer to do EkVillain 2.Perhaps Sid knew the villain would again walk away with all the praise. It happened withRiteish Deshmukhwho played the villain in EkVillain , says an informed source. In EkVillain 2, John Abraham has been signed to play the villain. Sources say Sidharth wanted to play the villain this time. When directorMohitSuri declined to entertain Malhotras wish, he opted out making way forAdityaRoyKapurwho has just delivered a hit Malang with directorMohitSuri. One hopes this incident wont sourSidharthMalhotras relations withMohitSurti irreparably and that they will soon be working together again.
