/> His first film released in September. Neil Mukesh's second film Tera Kya Hoga Johnny directed by Sudhir Mishra starts shooting on the 15 September.

Says Neil, "It's an off beat film and one where I don't play the title role. There're two stories set within the film industry running parallel to each other, and I'm in one of them. "

Neil's maiden film Johnny Gaddar was also an offebeat product. "I want to work with directors who teach me and hone my acting and take me to another level. If the director is good I want to work with him. "

He has cut a 3-film deal with Adlabs. "Tera Kya Hoga Johnny is the first of these films. The other two films are being decided now. Adlabs is keeping me in the loop about the projects. I'm currently meeting other people. But right now I'm focusing on the release of my first film. "

About being compared with Hrithik Roshan, Neil says he's flattered. "I take that as a compliment. He's one of the best-looking men in the world. When I'm compared with him I'm humbled. It's also an added pressure on me. I know how hard he has worked to get where he is.

I assisted Kunal Kohli in Mujhse Dosti Karogi which starred Hrithik. I've also attended a workshop with Hrithik. He has been a guiding force. My grandfather the late singer Mukesh, and Hrithik's grandfather the music composer Roshan were very close. "
