Directed by Bejoy Nambiar, David is an action thriller featuring Neil, Vinay Virmani and southern actor Vikram in prominent roles. The part featuring Neil has been shot in in black and white. "When Bejoy told me that the scenes will be in black and white, I really wanted to be a part of it," he said.
Neil made his Bollywood debut with Johnny Gaddaar in 2007. He was later seen in films like Aa Dekhen Zara, Jail and Lafangey Parindey. Most of his films didn't garner the expected success but the actor has no regrets.
"All my films are interesting. Whether they are successful on box office is not in my hands. I don't think they are bad films. The films have been interesting and I am happy about it," said Neil. "Every actor wants his films to be successful. But then, seeing the kinds of films which are successful now, I am happy with the films I am doing," he added. Meanwhile, the actor has a busy year with films like 3G, Ishqeria and Shortcut Romeo, in his kitty.
