This actor made a successful debut, was in a rumoured relationship with Asin, failed in Bollywood, net worth is…

Neil Nitin Mukesh was a child artist in films like Vijay and Jaisi Karni Waisi Bharni. He made his Bollywood debut with Sriram Raghavan’s Johnny Gaddaar in 2007, which remains one of the best thrillers in the last 20 years. However, after the success of this film and New York that came in 2009, his career didn’t see the high he expected.

The only two successful films he was then a part of were Prem Ratan Dhan Payo and Saaho. He was also rumoured to be in a relationship with Ghajini actress Asin, but neither of the two ever confirmed the same. He now has a production company and is expected to have a net worth of Rs 40 crore.

Exclusive interview with Firstpost in 2022

Neil Nitin Mukesh brought in his 40th birthday quietly at home with his family. “What else could I do considering the pandemic situation? If things were normal, I guess, I would have had a huge party, invited all my friends. Now it is just the family and the movies at home. We are having a movie marathon at home, a classic for mom and dad, an animated one for my daughter Nurvi, and a thriller or horror for my brother Naman, my wife Rukmini, and me.” This was his quote to Firstpost.

Though Neil comes from a family of singers—his grandfather is the legendary Mukesh and his father Nitin Mukesh is also a popular singer—acting has also been part of the family’s DNA. Neil’s granddad Mukesh played the leading man in some films.
