Right from the day Neil Nitin Mukesh made his entry into Bollywood, he has been focussing on action thrillers. But coming from a family full of legendary musicians, it was only a matter of time before he decided to make better use of his genes. And about four years after his debut, Neil has finally taken the plunge. “I have composed six songs, I have programmed them and written them. I have also sung all six songs,” confirms Neil.
In fact, not being satisfied in his role of music producer, he also wants to venture into movie production. “I am starting a production house. There are two films that I have penned down; one is a romantic thriller Paidar. About the other, I am not allowed to reveal anything yet,” he says.
He adds that he’s trying out these different things for his personal creative satisfaction. “I don’t want to be a producer for the money, which has unfortunately become very important. I am a creative man. I don’t see money; I don’t understand box office success formula and all of that. I am an actor and I am passionate about it. There is no point making cinema which you have to leave your brains behind to watch,” he clarifies.
