A hero in awe of another

  • IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,February 21 2006]

Normally heroes don't talk of other contemporary heroes in eulogizing terms.

Though most of the top names in the industry are good sport, they generally prefer to be quiet about heroes with whom they are competing.

But Nitin seems to be different. He is so broadminded that he is talking in glowing terms about a hero with whom his films may clash this summer.

Nitin is currently doing films for Siddique and Editor Shankar. Both the films are set for release one after another. And one of them may clash with Bangaram. Now Bangaram, directed by Dharani, stars Pawan Kalyan in the lead.

Despite a probable clash with Pawan’s film, Nitin is broadminded enough to say that he is a fan of Pawan’s.

He is my favorite actor, he recently said in an interview. ‘I saw Toli Prema in the theaters 21 times,’ he said. Now that is no hero worship. It is beyond that --- it is idolizing. ‘He's so versatile and his flops don't matter to me. Every film of his fascinates me, I want to follow his footsteps.’

Nitin sure is a smart and sportive actor.
