While Sidharth Malhotra has always been a 'sundar, susheel' gentleman, his role in Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK's upcoming film, A Gentleman, might have a little more to it than appears. The makers of the film released the trailer to the Malhotra-Jacqueline Fernandez-starrer today.
The trailer begins with the sight of a shy, good looking boy Gaurav (Malhotra) who has every good quality (sarva guna sampann, as the trailer says). However, his girlfriend Kavya (Fernandez) finds him too nice to marry. However, Gaurav has to drop his pressure cooker and pick up the guns when gangsters (a badass Suniel Shetty included) arrive at his doorstep in search of his look-alike, Rishi. The mysterious identity of Rishi and his relationship with Gaurav, add to the charm of the trailer.
Malhotra delivers some quality lines in the trailer, garnishing it with some oomph. Fernandez brings an interesting mix of sexy humour with her role as the complicated girl in Gaurav's life. The trailer is equal bit funny, and charming. Shetty brings a glowering menace to the trailer packed with some eye-catching action sequences. From the opening track with the strains of 'Baat Ban Jaaye' to Fernandez and Malhotra's chemistry, the trailer looks quite promising indeed.
Directed by Nidimoru and Krishna, A Gentleman is being touted as the sequel to the Hrithik Roshan-Katrina Kaif-starrer, Bang Bang (2014). The film also stars Rajit Kapur, among others. A Gentleman is set to be released on 25 August.
