We have seen the young Khan play a city slicker in almost all his films so we are wondering if he will be able to pull off the ‘gaon wala’ act in Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola

You last saw Neil Nitin Mukesh in Vishal Bhardwaj’s 7 Khoon Maaf as one of the victims of serial wife-and-killer Priyanka Chopra. Though it was a small role, he was noticed and appreciated.
