Ek Villain sequel on the cards

According to reports, filmmaker Mohit Suri is planning a sequel to his 2014 film, Ek Villain. Starring Shraddha Kapoor and Sidharth Malhotra in lead roles, the movie was a box office success and is still remembered for its melodious music.

Mohit, whose last directorial Half Girlfriend was an average affair at the ticket window, wants actor Aditya Roy Kapur to star in the sequel of Ek Villain. He has even approached the actor for the movie, who has liked the script.


“Mohit has a bound script ready, and it’s an Ek Villain’s sequel. He wants to take the franchise ahead with a fresh star cast. Aditya has been approached for the sequel. He has also liked the script,” reveals a source.

Mohit and Aditya have previously worked together in Aashiqui 2, which still remains their most successful film to date. Considering their past association in mind, it should not come as a surprise, if Aditya signs the project on the dotted lines.
