After Ayushmann Khurrana’s Wife, Neil Nitin Mukesh’s Brother Turns Director

Nepotism be damned,  the Indian film industry is busy promoting its own kith and kin as prospective  filmmakers and actors. Barely had we gotten over the the news that Ayushmann Khurrana’as wife will be  directing a film, when now  comes the announcement that actor Neil Nitin  Mukesh’s younger brother Naman will direct  a film entitled  Bypass Road.

The  film is  apparently  a  thriller   which will star  none other than  Neil Nitin Mukesh alongside Adah Sharma.

A  source  close to the development says, “Naman  shows  a keen interest  in filmmaking. Both  of  singer Neil Nitin Mukesh’s sons  Neil and Naman are part-time singers . But Neil was  always  more keen on acting while Naman is more interested infilmmaking.  Indulgent father  Nitin Mukesh has roped in a co-producer Madan Paliwal. Neil will be officially on board as the film’s producer and leading man.”

We hear Neil has also ghost-scripted  Bypass Road for  his kid-brother.

Neil  who has been  going through a  rough phase as a a leading man  lately re-surfaced  on  the screen with  villainous parts in  Tamil,  Telugu and Hindi films. A home-production  directed by his own  brother is  just what he needs to revive his career as a leading man.

We  are sure Kangana Ranaut agrees.
