Neil Nitin Mukesh signs another Telugu film

Actor Neil Nitin Mukesh, who impressed us with his negative performance in the Rohit Shetty directorial, Golmaal Again, is playing an antagonist in Sujeeth's forthcoming film Saaho. Headlined by Baahubali star Prabhash and Shraddha Kapoor, the multilingual film is being shot in Tamil, Telugu and Hindi. The latest we hear that the handsome actor has given his nod to star in another Telugu film which will also feature him in a villainous role.

Toplined by young actor Bellamkonda Sai Srinivas, the untitled project is being helmed by a debutant director Srinivas. The first shooting schedule of the film is currently progressing in Hyderabad.


“It's a slick thriller, presenting Bellamkonda youngster in a new light. Our director Srinivas who is vastly experienced as co-director for many hits films is handling the subject beautifully. Backed by strong technical skill from senior craftsmen Abburi Ravi, Chota K Naidu, SS Thaman, Chota K Prasad and Stunt Shiva, we now have Bollywood’s most wanted artist Neil Nitin Mukesh to join the shoot in next schedules," confirms producer Naveen Sontineni.

"Unlike the villain role Neil is reportedly playing in Saaho, he is roped in for an important and key character in our thriller script. His styling, appearance and depth of characterization will surely appeal the Telugu audience. Currently, shooting is under progress within Hyderabad and Neil will join us in forthcoming schedules. We are also to announce the two heroines besides Sai Srinivas very soon,” adds the producer.
