The motion picture has the words 'Sundar', 'Susheel' and 'Risky' written on it, giving the viewers a gist of the tone of the film's plot.

A peppy soundtrack to boot — the glimpse has caused just enough excitement to go with the oodles of mystery that is dripping from this action-thriller-comedy's teaser.

A Gentleman sees Sidharth Malhotra in a double role, with both his characters being diametrically opposed in their nature. This will be a first for Malhotra who has never portrayed a double role on screen before.

The movie is shot in Bangkok, Miami, Mumbai and Goa.

In an interview with the Indian Express, Malhotra called his upcoming movie 'popcorn action', comparing it to the serious action roles that he has essayed previously in Ek Villain and Brothers.
