Love makes the world go round, goes the cliche. But looks like Neil Nitin Mukesh is a firm believer of the same. "All the characters I've played have behaved in the way they have because of love, whether it was in Johnny Gaddar or Jail," he says. And even in his next film Lafangey Parindey, Neil's romance with the lovely Deepika Padukone forms the focal point of the story.
Don't be taken in by the rough promos of the film, Neil would rather describe it as a gritty love story instead. "My character One Shot Nandu is a regular boy — rebellious and ambitious and likes making his own decisions," he says.
What we're more interested in is knowing about Neil's real life love story. The actor, who broke off some time back with his girlfriend, is back on the single track. "But I believe whole-heartedly in love and relationships," he smiles.
And the new relationship in his life seems to have been formed with his leading lady. But before you get any ideas, Neil and Deepika really are just good friends. And while the actress has been going around town telling everyone how great the light-eyed actor is, Neil too can't stop raving about his gorgeous co-star. "But I'd like to talk about her as a person rather than as an actor," he says, "I keep telling her that her smile is one curved line that makes everything straight." Neil describes Deepika as an easy-going and simple girl.
"I'm rather possessive and protective about her. She's a part of my family now," he adds. Well now that Deepika has earned the distinction of being the first actress to be kissed on-screen by Neil, utna toh banta hai we guess!
