Here are some interesting facts about this flick:

'A Gentleman' will see Siddharth romance Jacqueline for the first time on-screen. Although the two starred together in 'Brothers' this will be the first time that fans will see them steam up the screens with their sexy lip-lock and much more. Fans got a peek at their crackling chemistry when they appeared on a chat show together. The two complement each other well and share a great camaraderie. This fresh pair is sure to create magic on screen leaving fans wanting more.

‘A Gentleman’ was not the film's title from the very beginning. Initially, the film touted as 'Bang Bang 2' went on to being titled ‘Reloaded’. But reports say that ‘Reloaded’ was merely a working title and was never going to be the final one. Guess the name change is only for the better.

This is the first time that Siddharth Malhotra will be essaying a double role in his Bollywood career. Unlike other typical dual roles, Sid plays two different parts with distinctive characteristics. Both are poles apart from each other, with one being a risk-taker and the other an ordinary man with his 9 to 5 job. Diametrically opposite in nature, both the boys have their own charm.

‘A Gentleman’ gave Jacqueline the chance to try her hand at action sequences. Yes! This is the first time that the actress will hit the screen with blazing guns. Reports say that Jacqueline was very excited to shoot the action sequences but when she got down to shooting it, it was difficult for her to wield the gun. And not just that, it’s the first time the ‘Judwaa 2’ actress played poker in her life while shooting for the film. Aren’t we all excited to see Jacqueline in this new and bold avatar?

Siddharth Malhotra’s introduction in the film is inspired by the classic hit ‘Bobby’. The ‘Baar Baar Dekho’ actor is seen smearing his head with dough just like Zeenat Aman did in ‘Bobby’. Even though it was more of a feminine scene, the directors reportedly wanted to try it on Siddharth to draw a contrast between his two characters.
