Marjaavaan, the upcoming film starring Sidharth Malhotra and Riteish Deshmukh has got a new release date as it shifted from October 2 to November 22. The postponement of the date has been taken to avoid its box-office clash with the much awaited Hrithik Roshan and Tiger Shroff starrer. Marjaavaan has been learnt to depict a battling faceoff between the former ‘Ek Villain’ co-stars Sidharth and Riteish. The film will also be starring Tara Sutaria and Rakul Preet in other pivotal roles.

Riteish is playing the role of a midget which quite resembles Shah Rukh Khan’s character in Zero but, this one is with a gun.
Both the actors had joined together for Ek Villain a few years ago. As reported, Riteish wasn’t too keen on playing a negative role once again. Being aware of the same, the makers, Bhushan Kumar and Nikhil Advani and director Milap Zaveri decided on giving the character a little twist, making him a midget along with a larger-than-life personality. Riteish’s character of villain is called Vishnu in the film.
As quoted by Milap on a popular media platform, “We decided to make his villain three-foot tall but larger-than-life with a wicked sense of humour. His Vishnu is arrogant and thinks he is invincible.” Interestingly, the character has a reference to the fifth avatar of Lord Vishnu, Vamana, and it is also mentioned in one of the dialogues.”
Milap further added, “Shah Rukh played a smaller version of himself. We storyboarded the screenplay and had a midget gentleman on the sets for Riteish to imbibe certain mannerisms and ensure he didn’t go overboard or underplay the physical aspects of the character.”
