The movie is sequel to the 2014 hit film, Ek Villain, which starred Sidharth Malhotra, Shraddha Kapoor and Riteish Deshmukh.

Tara Sutaria and Disha Patani play the female leads in the upcoming thriller.

Speaking about Ek Villain Returns, Mohit Suri said, “Ek Villain Returns is my dream project. It has been an incredible journey since day one and all of us had a great time. I had the best time working the entire cast, and the same has been reflected on screen.”
