Ek Villain Receives All Round Admiration!

Director Mohit Suri, known for helming blockbusters like Kalyug, Awarapan and Aashiqui 2 is back with romantic thriller Ek Villain, starring Sidharth Malhotra, Shraddha Kapoor and Riteish Deshmukh.

Going by the response that the film Ek Villain is receiving, Mohit seems to have created waves with his latest film.

"Friday trends so far: East-Wesy-North-South: #EkVillain has a THUNDEROUS start everywhere," trade analyst Taran Adarsh tweeted.

The India Today review states, "There is no doubt that film-maker Mohit Suri knows the craft, he is in fact one of the best film-makers out of the younger lot, which he has also proved in the past."

Mohar Basu writes on KoiMoi, "While the visible heroes might be Riteish or Sidharth, the driving wheel of this film (Ek Villain) is the captain of the ship, Mohit Suri. I have no qualms in stating that this is his best work till date. At so many places, Mohit shows how well he understands his characters."

Karan Johar tweets, "Rarely does a film scare you and move you to tears...intensity and brutality blended by the brilliance of Mohit Suri."

Following the bumper opening on Friday morning, the afternoon shows have also held quite well and the night shows are expected to be just as strong.

All in all, Ek Villain seems poised for some more thunderous days to come.
