Filmmaker Mohit Suri’s Ek Villain Returns, which hit the screens on July 29 alongside Kichcha Sudheep starrer Vikrant Rona, is doing well at the box office. In an exclusive conversation with press media, one of its lead actors, Tara Sutaria, says that she felt a sense of security when she learned that Suri was directing the film and had a good idea about the end result.
Apart from the music that made it easy to agree to the film, she explains, “Since Mohit was making the second part, I felt safe in the knowledge that he had done the first film (Ek Villain; 2014). , who better than him to make it? At a very basic level, Arjun (Kapoor), Disha I knew that (Patani) and John (Abraham) would fit in even if the story was removed. It was very important to have that. That intuitive feeling of the whole unit working together.”
Ek Villain Returns is Sutaria’s debut as a singer in Bollywood. Titled Shaamat, the track she recorded got a lot of attention and looking at the response, she wants to continue singing in upcoming projects as well. “When we were shooting for the song in Goa, it was also the first day Arjun and I were working together. I got to record Shaamat on stage. Lip-syncing to my own voice was crazy! An experience not many young actors get. I hope I can continue that in the upcoming films,” she says.

Sharing the experience of recording for the track, the 26-year-old says, “I’ve lost count of the number of recordings I had. We recorded Shaamat even before I knew what my character was and we started shooting. The film.”
Trained in Western Classical, Semi-Classical and Jazz, Shaamat has helped her become more confident in singing in Hindi over the past 21 years. “Music has been my world all my life. It’s an incredible and amazing experience to sing in a language I really adore, Hindi. I speak the language a lot in films, but I didn’t get a chance to sing in it. The last time I sang a Hindi song before Shaamat was in the promotions of other films I did,” Sutaria said.
