For some time now, speculation has been rife about who the real villain of upcoming film Ek Villain is -Sidharth Malhotra or Riteish Deshmukh? And now, there's a new twist in the tale. It recently emerged on a blog that Shraddha Kapoor is the culprit. An online video featuring Shradda in a hoodie has triggered the speculation.

Says director Mohit Suri, “Little did I know that the hoodie would become such a rage. I've been wearing one ever since we started shooting. People have even asked me if the hoodies are for sale. I guess the intrigue level is soaring."

Tanuj Garg, CEO, Balaji Motion Pictures, which is producing the movie, says, “We're enjoying the theories around the villain's identity . But there's much more to the film than just that."

Ek Villain releases on June 27.
