A still from Ek Villain
Four years after the success of Mohit Suri's Ek Villain that featured Sidharth Malhotra, there has been renewed interest in the film. While certain reports stated that Malhotra is reuniting with producer Ekta Kapoor for the sequel, there has also been buzz that Suri has already scripted the second instalment with Aditya Roy Kapur in mind. Though Malhotra quashed reports of revisiting the 2013 hit, neither Suri nor Kapur had clarified their stance.

Talking to mid-day, Suri finally opened up on his next that sees him reuniting with his Aashiqui 2 star. "Yes, I am working with Aditya. It will be a thriller," he said, pointing out that he is most comfortable with the genre. "My earlier films like Murder 2 (2011) and Kalyug (2005) were also in the same genre."

However, he dismissed rumours of them developing Ek Villain 2 as he quipped, "I've heard that I am making Ek Villain 2 and that I already have a bound script which has been given to Aditya. But nothing like that is happening. Ek Villain is a Balaji Telefilms property and they haven't approached me yet."
