Action leads Neil Bhatt to 'Diya Aur Baati Hum'

TV grab of the show

Mumbai: Guys often get excited just by the mention of words like guns and action. Actor Neil Bhatt is no different. 

The actor, who is seen as cadet Zakir on TV show “Diya Aur Baati Hum”, was thrilled to play the character not only because of the script, but as it involved action sequences.

“I was given a chance to work with NCC cadets, army, police people, use weapons and ammunition. I even wore a uniform which is so respectable,” Neil said.

“I had to assemble one gun for the scene and I was so excited that I caught hold of a trainer and told him to teach me to assemble the guns ranging from rifles to AK-47,” he added.

Neil has also taken inspiration from Hollywood movies.

“I am an avid watcher of Hollywood movies like 'James Bond'. I used to think 'what it must have felt while holding a gun' and pondered 'how would I do the scene'. But now I know that,” he said.
