Neil is experiencing quiet a career high these days what with films like Aa Dekhe Zaraa, Madhur Bhandarkar’s Jail and a Yash Raj banner film, titled New York in his kitty. Neil says he finds no time to think about anything else in life. Quiz him about his contemporaries and the stiff competition he is facing from them and he says “I am not worried about competition” he says. “Fortunately a whole lot of my friends like Ranbir Kapoor, Sikander Kher, Imran Khan and Harman Baweja we all made it into films at the same time and everyone is busy and is doing good work. There is enough space for everyone here” he says.
Feeling proud that he was the first one to make an entry into bollywood Neil says “Johnny Gaddaar was the first film to release amongst the lot. We are all doing amazing and brilliant films of different genres. Everyone is experimenting and that is very exicting he says. Ranbir has already proved himself with Bachna Ae Haseeno . Imraan was good in Jaane Tu… and Kidnap . Again Sikander Kher is a talented guy. Harman is again a dark Horse. He was brilliant in Love Story… and now Victory is up for release. All these are nice guys.”
“We are all good friends. Ranbir and me are like family. He is like a brother to me. He is mischievous like hell but he is damn sweet. I have met Harman just once. He messaged me to congratulate during Johnny Gaddar. I did the same after watching his debut film. I don’t know Imraan personally. He seems to be a bundle of talent. I would love to meet him and be friends with him too” adds Neil further.
He continues “There’s a dearth of new talent and we all are working hard and doing well. We have been appreciated in some way or the other. We all are moving on and are happy doing what we are doing. I don’t think there’s any kind of insecurity in me or the others.”
