A Ganesh Nadar
Who says one can't mix work with a splash of colour?
The Dussehra sets on the outskirts of Pune looks like a castle.

"Only gulal for me, no paint, water or throwing eggs," Neil lays down his conditions for shooting the scene.
Neil and Tena clearly don't like the Festival of Colours.
Tena says she has never played Holi in her life. "I am always scared that the colours won't go!" she exclaims.

Neil's look in the film is inspired from guess who? "Brad Pitt and Leonardo Di Caprio carry it very well. That's why I chose it," he explains.
Tena plays a top cop married to Neil's encounter specialist character.
"Why should I have an ego problem if my wife is my boss?" Neil asks. "In reel and in real life, I have no problem with women being my boss."

Director Manish Vatsalya feels audiences want to be entertained when they watch a film; they don't need a social message.
"They pay Rs 350 to be happy, not to listen to morals," he says.

The film also stars Ravi Kishan and Murli Sharma.
"In Bhojpuri cinema, I am a superstar. In Hindi cinema, I am an actor. How else will I get a chance to work with Mani Ratnam and Shyam Benegal?" Ravi Kishan asks.
