Neil Nitin Mukesh 'refuses to get tattoo for Short Cut Romeo'

Neil Nitin Mukhesh has reportedly refused to get a tattoo for his role in Short Cut Romeo.

The actor, who is said to be basing his character on Colin Farrell, has not explained his decision, according to DNA India.

A source told the site: "We don't know the reason but Neil has told us that he has not thought about sporting a tattoo on his body for the film Short Cut Romeo. We have tried to reason with him but he has said that he will figure it out.

"Sporting a tattoo on his body will require Neil to get rid of all his body hair and this is something that the actor is dithering about. Neil hasn't really shaved or waxed for any of his roles.

"We have been looking for solutions and we have come up with the fact that he could wear a tattooed sleeve for the film. Neil had a meeting with us about the role but this tattoo part has not been finalised yet.

"We hope that he understands that sporting a tattoo these days is no big deal and you need to get yourself waxed for it."

They added that Mukhesh will be wearing a beard and earrings for the role.

In February, the Jism star revealed that he wants to move away from serious roles and appear in comedy instead.
