He tells us, "I now want to take up a bigger dare, say like character roles in Bollywood or a lead in television show. Many people didn't think I'd fit the bill for Daljit but I proved them wrong and have made the people who had faith in me proud. Now I want to grow more and beyond the mould of Daljit."

When asked if he is willing to do provocative scenes for a Bollywood role in this highly competitive era he replied, "I know what you mean. But I'll do it only if the script and the character demands it. Until and unless I haven't gone through the script I can't really say much. If there's a genuine need for it, then I don't mind doing it. But to be honest my ardent wish is to do some romantic role like Raj in DDLJ."

Vineett is a die-hard fan of Amitabh Bachchan. He gushes, "There's not a single film of Bachchanji that I haven't watched. Sharaabi and Agnipath are my all time favorites. Although I feel with Paa he crossed several more leagues as an actor. How, as an actor one should go to the extremes of reinvention is exhibited by Amitji in a remarkable way!"

The actor feels sad about missing an opportunity to meet his idol. He says, "Amitji was supposed to shoot at a studio next to ours but sadly my off was also on that day only. It's a very unfortunate incident that I missed seeing him." He adds as an afterthought, "But I won't give up the wish to meet him personally someday"

Vineett has a long list of directors that he dreams of working with. "Vishal Bhardwaj, Anurag Kashyap, Rakesh Roshan, Rakeysh Om Prakash Mehra and Raj Kumar Hirani are fabulous directors. I would consider it an honour if I'm given an opportunity to work with them," he signs off.
