Sidharth Malhotra Turns Down Mohit Suri

Ek Villain  the  2014  hit  which featured  Sidharth Malhotra as a reformed criminal avenging his beloved’s murder , is  all set  to get a sequel.The film was one of the few  hits in Sidharth Malhotra’s career and definitely  gave his career a  much-needed  boost.

It therefore comes  as a  surprise  to know  Sidharth Malhotra  has turned down director Mohit Suri’s offer to do Ek Villain 2.

“Perhaps  Sidharth Malhotra knew the  villain would again walk away with all the praise. It happened with Ritesh  Deshmukh who played  the  villain  in Ek Villain,” says  an informed source.

In  Ek Villain 2 John Abraham has  been  signed  to play  the  villain . Sources say   Sidharth Malhotra wanted to play the  villain this time.When director Mohit Suri  declined to entertain Malhotra’s wish he  opted out making way for Aditya Roy Kapur who has just delivered a hit Malang  with  director Mohit Suri.

One hopes  this incident won’t shower  Sidharth Malhotra’s relations with Mohit Surti  irreparably and that they will soon  be working together again.
