Dino Morea, the dashing and tall model breezed into Bollywood and got popular after the success of his film, Raaz, opposite the sexy Bipasha Basu.

But fortune has not favored Dino after that, as most of his films have bombed at the box office. Also, he went unnoticed in the very few films which did well.

Now, Dino is all set to strive hard to establish a name for him in the box office. The actor will be seen along with Shital Menon and Milind Soman in the film "Bhram".

Q.: How do you look at the film "Bhram"?
A.: Every human being has a point in life while he faces complete illusion. In this film, I as well as my co-star Shital Menon face such an illusion. In our real life, what we see may sometimes be illusions.

This film is also based on that concept. This film is based on the relationship between one man and a woman but it's not about that relationship only.

The relation between two brothers is also shown very well in the film. It's a beautiful romantic thriller.

Q.: Have you ever faced illusion in your life?
A.: Yeah. When "Raaz" was released, I got the illusion to become the number one hero of the industry very soon. But that never turned to be a truth. Still I am fighting for my existence in Bollywood. I think everyone gets such illusions. I think illusion is better as you may work harder to turn the illusion into reality.

Q.: That was about illusions in your real life. What about your character in this film?
A.: I am an investment banker in the movie, you will see more about his relations and problems related to those relations.

In this film I am in love with a woman (Shital Menon) who faces an incident in her childhood and due to that, she faces problems. At the end the mystery is solved through illusion.

The important matter with the film is that in the story we are beautifully bonded together.

Q.: You, Shital and Milind – all of you are from the world of fashion. Was there any profit working together?
A.: We had nothing to do with profit and loss. If you want to know about comfort level then I should say that we always have certain level of comfort working with any actor.

You can witness whether the chemistry between actors is good or not during the shooting of every scene. In whichever film I have worked till date, I have maintained a good comfort level with all my co-stars.

It was Shital's first film and I tried in every possible way to make her comfortable. Please don't take it otherwise as I did it all for the sake of the film.

Q.: These days you are seen in many romantic thrillers. Is there any reason behind that?
A.: This is my last romantic thriller. After this movie, you will never see me doing any romantic thrillers. Actually I signed the film in 2006 and I couldn't resist it from happening. I myself am very bored of these kind of films.

And that's the reason that I didn't sign any film after 2006. From now onwards I'll do only action or romantic comedy. That's my resolution. Recently I have signed Sanjay Gupta's action movie "Acid Factory".

Q.: Did you do that to avoid getting confined within an image?
A.: No, there's nothing like that. I just want to appear in front of my audience with a new look. That's why I have increased my hair and have changed my look.

Q.: Is there any other film than "Acid Factory" that you would like to talk about?
A.: Yeah, there is Anant Mahadevan's "Anamika". I am doing an item song in Janu Barua's "Har Pal". Samir Kartik is doing a film named "Heroes".

There are many characters in the film and I have also given a five minute comic touch in this film. "Heroes" is based on Army background. Salman Khan, Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, Mithun Chakraborty and Preity Zinta have acted in "Heroes".

Previously it was named as "Mera Bharat Mahan" and after that they got stuck to the name "Heroes".

Q.: I guess there are films like "Kabhi Bhi Kahin Bhi", "Sargana", "Deh" and "Shadi Shuda Patakha" that you are doing.
A.: "Kabhi Bhi Kahin Bhi" is closed now. And I am quite unknown to the rest of the films that you are talking about. Who is making so many films with me?

Q.: You said that you will do an item song in "Har Pal". That means after Tushar and Shahrukh you are getting the image of item boy.
A.: I feel the word item is very odd. I would feel better if you say that hero have done a song in the film. Preity approached me for the song so I made her also dance in the song. It's a beautiful song and I have danced very well in it. And I have designed the dresses of the song, too.

Q.: The making of sequel of the film "Raaz" is on the way and you are not a part of the film. What would you like to say?
A.: I have been asked the question many times. Even I don't understand how can they think of a sequel of the film without me and Bipasha.

The funny thing about that is the director of the film is Mohit Suri and not Vikram Bhatt. As far as the name of the film is concerned its rights are reserved with Tips and they cannot use the name without their permission.

But it's now very clear that the bondage between Tips and Mukesh Bhatt is no more. And without all those things how can they make the sequel of the film is still a big question mark for me.

Q.: Do you think Tips should make the sequel of "Raaz" seeing the previous success of the film?
A.: I can't say that. But I can only say its sequel will work very well. But it has to be seen that in the name of its sequel anyone just don't make any garbage. - Rajnee Gupta.
