Sidharth Malhotra, who tasted decent success with his last release Marjaavaan (2019) after a series of flops, is in a happy space right now. With the success of the Milap Zaveri directorial, the actor has earned back the trust of several filmmakers once again.
The young actor is currently looking for his two upcoming projects – Shershaah and the official remake of superhit Tamil action thriller Thadam (2019). What makes the two projects special is the fact that the actor plays double roles in both films. Making the most of the lockdown in India, Malhotra has been watching a lot of films to prepare for his dual roles.
“Sidharth is watching a lot of good films which have double roles by the lead character. One of the films he watched was the Dilip Kumar film Ram Aur Shyam (1967) and was stunned by it. He is watching more such films so that he can prepare for the Thadam remake without getting too stressed about it,” a source informs a publication.
The source goes on to add that the Thadam remake was set to begin production in May, but the shooting schedule can go for a toss if the ongoing lockdown is extended further. “The film was to go on the floors with Vardhan Ketkar as the director for producers Murad Khetani and Bhushan Kumar in the month of May, and may not be much delayed if the pre-production work and the locations are locked, assuming that the lockdown ends soon,” the source concludes.
