Bollywood actor Riteish Deshmukh is all set to play a villain once again in Milap Zaveri's 'Marjaavaan'. Following SRK in 'Zero', Riteish will play a dwarf. He is preparing hard for his character by analysing and observing how someone of that height would walk, gesticulate and run. They are also taking workshops.

Produced by Bhushan Kumar's T-Series and Emmay Entertainment's Monisha Advani, Madhu Bhojwani and Nikkhil Advani; this romantic action drama also stars his 'Ek Villain' co-star Sidharth Malhotra and Tara Sutaria along with Rakul Preet Singh.

On Riteish playing villain again in his film, director Milap says," Riteish's villainous role had to be better than the last time. I decided to raise the bar by scaling him down in size. Even though he is a dwarf, his character is larger than life. The part is extremely wicked with dark humour, great punch lines and some crazy face-off scenes with Sid."

While Sidharth has already started shooting, Riteish will join them soon which is slated to release on 2nd October 2019. Moreover, Riteish Deshmukh will be next seen in a Marathi film titled 'Mauli' in which he is set to play a robust cop. The film is directed by Aditya Sarpotdar, also stars Saiyami Kher opposite Riteish. 'Mauli' is slated for a 14th December release date.
