Sidharth Malhotra stated that he had no reference to the character in romantic thriller Ek Villain, in which his role is that of a man with grey shades. “To do an action-oriented and intense film right after doing romance is far more taxing because real life references are not there. Neither am I such a kind of person in real life nor do I know somebody with such personality. So, in that case, you have to work much harder, do homework as an actor, have to work on your look and this is what I have tried to do in the film,” stated the actor.
Directed by Mohit Suri, Ek Villain also features Riteish Deshmukh and Shraddha Kapoor. It will hit the theaters Friday, June 27, 2014.
