MUMBAI: Sidharth Malhotra made his Bollywood debut with Student of the Year in 2012. He was last seen on the big screen in Marjaavaan, and his performance was much appreciated by the audience.
Sidharth has wrapped up his upcoming movie Shershaah, a Vikram Batra biopic, and will now start shooting for Indra Kumar’s next.
The actor is also all set to star in the official remake of the 2019’s Tamil hit Thadam, which will go on the floors this May with a start-to-finish schedule. The action-thriller will not only see Sidharth in a double role, a businessman and a small-time thief and gambler, but will also mark the directorial debut of Vardhan Ketkar, who has earlier worked for Brothers, Kapoor & Sons, and Mubarakan.
A source close revealed, 'Sidharth plays a double role for the first time in his career, a businessman and a small-time thief and gambler always looking to make a quick buck. The film is currently in prep and the team is working towards creating two distinct looks for him.'
Inspired from a real-life incident, Thadam starring Arun Vijay revolved around a murder that results in a cat-and-mouse game between two identical characters and the cops. 'The story has plenty of thrills which lend themselves to some interesting chase sequences, something that appealed to Sid instantly, in addition to the challenge of playing a double role,' the source added.
