Redefining screen villains and antiheroes, the Ek Villain franchise comprises gritty neo-noir thrillers with the first movie even connected to a South Korean cult favourite. If you wish to watch the Ek Villain movies in the right viewing order, we’ve got you covered with a guide that gives you all the movies in chronological order along with all the information on where to stream them.
How to watch the Ek Villain movies in chronological order
The Ek Villain movies are thematically connected to each other despite different lead characters. They can fortunately be viewed in the same order as their release date.
-
Ek Villain (2014)
-
Ek Villain Returns (2022)
Additionally, fans of the franchise can also watch the South Korean thriller I Saw The Devil as the first movie was an unofficial remake of this 2010 hit.

I Saw The Devil (2010)
Much like the Korean film it draws inspiration from, Ek Villain deals with morally gray characters involved in a never-ending cycle of violence. While I Saw The Devil was about a face-off between a revenge-seeking police officer and a deranged murderer, Ek Villain instead pitted a reformed criminal (Siddharth Malhotra) against a misogynistic, homicidal villain (Riteish Deshmukh). Shraddha Kapoor also stars in Ek Villain as Malhotra’s on-screen love interest, one who helps awaken the humanity within his antiheroic character.
A few years later, Ek Villain Returns dealt with similar themes of violence and redemption but with an all-new cast of characters helmed by John Abraham, Arjun Kapoor, Disha Patani, and Tara Sutaria. With Abraham and Kapoor’s characters both stuck in one-sided romances, the movie explores which of the two antiheroes would end up becoming an actual villain. A mid-credits scene brought back a major character from the first film connecting the two movies together and opening the possibility of a third installment.
