Everyone has their own vision of making films. I am a dreamer. I want to make larger than life films, which are fictitious but are great entertainers,&quot; Neil told PTI in an interview here. When asked if he has plans to make films like &#39;Dabangg&#39;, &#39;Rowdy Rathore&#39; or &#39;Singham&#39;, in which the heroes were portrayed larger-than-life, he answered in the negative. &quot;For everyone, the definition of larger than life is different. For me larger than life means films like &#39;Johnny Gaddaar&#39;,&quot; he said. Johnny Gaddaar&quot; (2007) a thriller directed by Sriram Raghavan, had Neil alongside Dharmendra, Zakir Hussain, Rimi Sen, Vinay Pathak and Govind Namdeo. The film received critical acclaim and went on to be a hit of the year. It was later remade in Telugu and Malayalam in 2012. Neil says he wants to get behind the camera someday. &quot;I would definitely like to get into direction. It will certainly happen someday but it is a little premature to talk about it. I want to explore all the areas,&quot; Neil said. He was an assistant director for Yash Raj Films&#39; &#39;Mujhse Dosti Karoge&#39;. He is putting final touches to the script of &#39;Paidaar&#39;, which means eternal, which he has penned. There was a buzz that Deepika Padukone would be the leading lady in the film. &quot;We have not considered anyone till now as we are still working on the film. We will either go with a superstar actress or a newcomer,&quot; Neil said. If all goes as per the plan, the film will go on the floors this year itself. Neil will be seen next in &#39;Shortcut Romeo&#39; opposite Puja Gupta and Ameesha Patel. The film a romantic-action- thriller is directed by South director Susi Ganesan. It will release on June 21. He is also doing &#39;Ishqeria&#39; with Richa Chadda and another film titled &#39;Dusshera&#39;.u00a0
