Neil Nitin Mukesh's last film, David, may not have been a hit but the actor has been quite busy shooting for his movies.

After shooting a song sequence with Yana Gupta for his film, Dussehra, we caught him on the sets of his other film, Shortcut Romeo.

The sets were erected at Filmistan, Goregaon, in the western suburbs of Mumbai, and the film wrapped up on Sunday, April 21.

Emraan Hashmi was reportedly approached to play the lead before Neil bagged the project while Ameesha's role was apparently offered to Bipasha Basu and Deepika Padukone first.
