Ek Villain is a story to show transformation. The fact that a brutal gangster can become a good person if loved and a normal man can become brutal if he receives hatred and nothing else forms the crux of the story.
The story is about Guru (Siddhartha ) who is a gangster working under don Caesar, he has a guilt to have killed a young man mercilessly. When he meets Aisha (Shraddha Kapoor), his life changes, throughout his life he hated his destiny until Aisha makes him fall in love with her and he starts to discover the wonders of the life he unknowingly wanted. Parallel to this love story is the story of Rakesh (Riteish Deshmukh) who wants to be his family’s ‘hero’ and always gets nagged by his wife Sulochna (Aamna Sharif) and thus spends time killing the girls and women who talk rudely to him. He states that he also wants to kill his wife but cannot since he loves her more than ever. Guru’s and Rakesh’s path intersect and then you get to clutter your fingers during the movie.
The best thing about this movie was watching Riteish Deshmukh in the role of a psychotic serial killer who relieves his stress, given by his wife, by mercilessly killing other girls who had been rude to him and stealing one of their ornaments and gifting it to his wife.
Riteish was excellent in his character, throughout the movie, during the boring conversations between Guru and Aisha, I waited for Rakesh to commit another sin. Ek Villain is an example of such a movie in which the audience will cheer for the antagonist, Deshmukh. Through this movie Riteish has proved that apart from being the comedy king, he can flawlessly enact serious and villaneous roles too, though he had proved this point earlier also while giving movies like Rann and Naach, but our audience is so addicted to good looking heroes that talent goes unnoticed most of the time.
Siddhartha was also great in his role; he has a romantic character but not a chocolaty lover kind of role that he did in his earlier movies; no doubt this gangster role fits into his profile. Shraddha Kapoor was irritating, she has an irritating voice, she had irritating dialogs, each scene that comprised only her and Siddharth were boring, thanks to Mohit Suri that he imposed a beautiful song after each of their scenes. Yes the songs were excellent; almost all of them were liked by me. Mohit Suri proved that whatever the genre is, he will rightfully produce the results that audience will love. The surprise was Kamaal R Khan, I think he should carry the comedy genre forward, even when he laughs out loud and delivers dialog, it is comedy for us. Others had a limited scope and thus properfully fitted into their charactors except Remo Fernandez who enacted the role of Caesar, he appeared to be overacting. The story has many loopholes so I won’t say that the story was excellent. Certain things weren’t explained for example what Caesar’s reaction was after Guru does not kill Rakesh’s child in the end. Why Rakesh kills Guru’s father-in-law? If Rakesh would have simply told the address to the policeman, Guru would have reached there anyway to beat Rakesh, there was no need of a psycho to kill Aisha’s father and how Rakesh did even know that the particular person is Aisha’s father? The story has these kinds of unexplained scenes which the writer and the director failed to make clear.

Overall this movie is a decent watch, at least for Siddharth and Riteish, you should watch it. After watching the movie once, you will definitely want to watch it again by forwarding some scenes only to see Riteish Deshmukh because he was the scene stealer.
Out of 5, this film deserves 3
