Dino Morea talks about his career mistakes, life behind the cameras and Bipasha Basu

Sitting on a relaxed Sunday afternoon in his sprawling green bungalow at Bandra, Dino Morea is quite the bindaas guy. A recent Greek holiday has given a lovely golden tan to the actor-turned-producer. In a freewheeling chat, he talks about regretting certain decisions in life and the acting bug that is still within him...

Is it true that you and Bipasha Basu will pair up for Jism 3?
Well, I will love that if it really happens. Bipasha is a fantastic co-star to work with and it will be great. But as of now, there are no talks of Jism 3.

Did you enjoy going behind the cameras for Jism 2?
I liked my job but I was really jealous of Arunoday Singh and Randeep Hooda who were paired opposite Sunny Leone. All that I wanted was to get back to being in front of the cameras!

That said, I am looking to produce and direct more films in the near future. I miss acting and there is an acting-keeda inside me. Actually many people were under the impression that I too was in the star cast for Jism 2. But obviously, I wasn't!


Do you think you somewhere went wrong with your acting career?
Yes, I don't want to repeat the same mistakes that I made after doing my first film. I made some crazy choices, earned money but now I will be careful in choosing scripts that come my way.

You have been linked with designer Nandita Mahtani. Is marriage on the cards?
Yeah, keep the buzz going! I like to keep my personal life under wraps. In an interview a journalist asked me if I want to get married, I said yes. But what appeared next day in the papers was not what I had said. Yes, I would love to get married and let's see when it happens.


You recently went to Greece for a holiday...
Yes, I spent all my time relaxing and reading scripts. I even had my phones switched off. Swimming in the cold waters of the Aegean Sea was very rejuvenating. It invigorated my senses; it made me feel completely relaxed with not a care in the world.
