There is an acting bug inside me

Dino Morea talks about his career mistakes, life behind the cameras and Bipasha Basu 

A recent Greek holiday has given a lovely golden tan to the actor-turned-producer. In a freewheeling chat, he talks about regretting certain decisions in life and the acting bug that is still within him...

Is it true that you and Bipasha Basu will pair up for Jism 3?
Well, I will love that if it really happens. Bipasha is a fantastic co-star to work with and it will be great. But as of now, there are no talks of Jism 3.

Did you enjoy going behind the cameras for Jism 2?
I liked my job but I was really jealous of Arunoday Singh and Randeep Hooda who were paired opposite Sunny Leone. All that I wanted was to get back to being in front of the cameras! 

That said, I am looking to produce and direct more films in the near future. I miss acting and there is an acting-keeda inside me. Actually many people were under the impression that I too was in the star cast for Jism 2. But obviously, I wasn't!
Do you think you somewhere went wrong with your acting career?
Yes, I don't want to repeat the same mistakes that I made after doing my first film. I made some crazy choices, earned money but now I will be careful in choosing scripts that come my way.

You have been linked with designer Nandita Mahtani. Is marriage on the cards?
Yeah, keep the buzz going! I like to keep my personal life under wraps. In an interview a journalist asked me if I want to get married, I said yes. But what appeared next day in the papers was not what I had said. Yes, I would love to get married and let's see when it happens.
You recently went to Greece for a holiday...
Yes, I spent all my time relaxing and reading scripts. I even had my phones switched off. Swimming in the cold waters of the Aegean Sea was very rejuvenating. It invigorated my senses; it made me feel completely relaxed with not a care in the world.

No one lets go of an erring celebrity, says Dino

When a celebrity gets caught breaking traffic rules, the news gets hyped -- and justifiably so, says actor-producer Dino Morea, who feels that officials feel happier when catching a known face as it makes their work more visible.

Asked to comment on the way a celebrity's drunken driving is dealt in a hyped way vis-a-vis they way it is done in the case of a common man, Dino said: "That is hyped. Because he is a celebrity and people do not let go of such opportunities. If they (traffic officials) catch hold of a celebrity, they feel like they are proving that 'Yes, I work'."

The 36-year-old spoke on the sidelines of the Total Quartz safety run, a traffic awareness campaign organised by a radio station and Total Oil India Pvt Ltd, here Tuesday.

Dino says celebrities ought to be more responsible as people look up to them.

"Celebrities are (supposed to be) responsible persons. Everyone listens to them and do what they say and because of that, he (a celebrity) has to be a responsible person, " Dino said.

Pooja Bhatt taught me to shout: Dino Morea

Actor turned producer Dino Morea has a lot to shout about these days.

When we met him at a recent event, the handsome hunk told us that venturing into production was big learning curve for him. Dino tells B-S, Now, I understand what producers have to go through.

The biggest lesson I learnt was to shout at people. I never had the habit of screaming or losing my temper. But out there, I realised that nothing gets done unless you raise your voice, and demand for it.

In this regard, Pooja (Bhatt) is like a bhopu (horn). The kind of noise she can generate on the sets is unbelievable. She's taught me to shout.
