Actor Neil Nitin Mukesh says working with "Shaitaan" fame director Bejoy Nambiar in his forthcoming film "David" has made him realise that the latter is a good actor too.

Praising Nambiar, he tweeted: "The shoot of 'David' is progressing well. Bejoy Nambiar is one fine director. Yesterday, I saw a glimpse of being a good actor."

"No wonder he directs well. I believe a good director needs to be a good actor to extract what he wants from his actors."

A gangster-comedy, "David" also features Vinay Virmani, Vikram and Isha Sharvani. It is being shot in both Hindi and Tamil simultaneously.
