Ek Villain Returns (2022)

Ek Villain Returns is a 2022 Hindi-language action-thriller directed by Mohit Suri, serving as a spiritual sequel to the 2014 hit Ek Villain. The film stars John Abraham, Arjun Kapoor, Disha Patani, and Tara Sutaria in pivotal roles, blending suspense, action, and romance in a twisted narrative about love and vengeance.

The story focuses on two contrasting men, Bhairav (played by John Abraham) and Gautam (played by Arjun Kapoor), whose lives intertwine through a series of events driven by obsession, betrayal, and revenge. The film delves into their respective relationships with Rasika (played by Disha Patani) and Aarvi (played by Tara Sutaria). As these love stories unfold, a masked killer targeting women becomes the central mystery of the plot.

Ek Villain Returns plays with the concept of blurred morality, where it’s hard to distinguish between the hero and the villain. The film keeps viewers guessing as it unravels who the real villain is. The twist-filled narrative maintains suspense, as love, jealousy, and revenge drive the characters to extreme lengths.

John Abraham and Arjun Kapoor deliver intense performances, while Disha Patani and Tara Sutaria bring charm and complexity to their roles. Songs like "Galliyan Returns" serve as a nostalgic nod to the original film, with new tunes enhancing the dark, romantic atmosphere.

Visually, the film carries a gritty, stylized tone, reflecting the inner turmoil of the characters and the violent, unpredictable world they inhabit.
