"It's a pure coincidence that the two films are releasing within a gap of four months. What attracted me to the film was the script, working with Tanuja Chandra and B.A.G Films Ltd," said Shiney whose performance in "Gangster" was his first commercial foray that received a lot of applause.
"Zindagi Rocks" is a love story set in urban times showcasing the life of two lovers.
"Shiney has a strong personality and is sure to make a mark in Bollywood. His performance in 'Zindagi Rocks' will surely establish him as an actor who is here to stay and grow in this competitive industry," said producer Anurradha Prasad.
Chandra, who is directing the film, is equally impressed with Shiney's work and said: "Shiney has done a great job on screen. His sensitive portrayal of Dr. Suraj Rihan is very different from the roles he has done so far."
Produced under the banner of B.A.G. Films Ltd, the film also has Moushumi Chatterjee, Kim Sharma, Seema Biswas and Ravi Gosain. Music is by Anu Malik.
