Mohit Suri's romantic action-drama Ek
Villain (2014), starring Shraddha Kapoor
and Sidharth Malhotra in the lead, was
appreciated by the masses and proved
to be a box-office success. This,
apparently, made producer Ekta Kapoor
to kick off work on the film's sequel.
Additionally, speculations were rife
that Sidharth will be replaced by Arjun
Kapoor in Ek Villain 2.
However, if a report by a leading news
agency is to be believed, Sidharth will
retain his role as the film's lead while
Arjun's name is being considered for the
role of an antagonist. "The producers
have approached both of the actors
Sidharth for the role of the protagonist
and Arjun for the negative role... Talks
are on and they have not signed the
contract as yet, a source revealed to the
news agency.

If everything goes well, Ek Villain 2 might
turn out to be Arjun's and Sidharth's first
film together. Moreover, it would be
interesting to see Arjun step into the
shoes of Riteish Deshmukh, who played
the villain in the first part. With no official
confirmation yet, we will have to wait
how things turn out eventually.
Meanwhile, on the work front, Sidharth
is currently shooting for Jabariya Jodi in
Lucknow alongside Parineeti Chopra.
Arjun, on the other hand, has an eclectic
mix of films ahead with Sandeep Aur
Pinky Faraar, India's Most Wanted and
Panipat in the pipeline, He will next be
seen in Vipul Shah's Namaste England.

Ek villain was lucky it had a great korean movie as its skeleton. Hopefully they copy another korean thriller for EV2. Bollywood sucks in this genre.

K-Dramas and K-movies are darn good.These Thai/Korean/Japanese/Taiwan/Chinese guys are so innovative with their story telling.
Arjun is going to steal every sec of fame from Sid if its true.Arjun has screen presence and can act which Sid,does not have and can not.

AK needs to lose some weight though.
