Cherry to ring in the New Year with Neil
Ameesha Patel and Neil Nitin Mukesh will ring in the New Year together in Mumbai by unveiling the first look of south director Susi Ganesan's Shortcut Romeo, a remake of Tamil film, Thiruttu Payale (2006).
The event, to be held at a SoBo lounge, will have the actors' close friends, well-known industrialists and businessmen, apart from the cast and crew of the film, in attendance. A special invite, designed in the form of a show reel, has been sent out to the film's team and friends.
Ameesha is so excited about this event that she even pushed back her scheduled Bangkok trip by a few days. Says a source, "For Ameesha, unveiling the first look of the film called for a bigger celebration." Initially, Ameesha was to bring in the New Year in Thailand but changed her entire plan after watching the rough cut of the film. She's believed to have told her friends that she's proud to be a part of this film. More so since her role is a complete contrast to her good-girl image. "And besides showing her in new light, the negative role has been also been a challenge for her," says our source, adding that Neil's character has grey shades, too.
The source adds, "Ameesha and Neil have finished dubbing and she has personally looked into the invites and wants the trailer to be screened at the stroke of midnight. The film is expected to release in April, 2013."
