Indraneil has signed Vikram Bhatt's Mumbai Salsa opposite a fresh face much to the displeasure of the production house of Banoo Main Teri Dulhann. The producers of the show are upset that Indraneil has left the show to take up the film offer all of a sudden. Indraneil who is currently shooting for Mumbai Salsa was offered the movie a couple of months back. The film will be ready for release in September. Indraneil says, "I play Karan, who is a well-off merchant banker in the film. It's a youth-oriented, urban film about contemporary people who are in search of love. I loved the role and am very excited. My character is shaping up very well." A source, close to the TV production house, said: "Indraneil had a meaty character in Dulhann and he played the parallel lead. He left his television producer midway. He was doing television all this while and had no film offers in hand. As soon as he got a film offer he grabbed the opportunity notwithstanding the work left in his show. He put his production house in a lurch and has asked them to put an end to his character." Justifying his decision, Indraneil says: "My dates for Dulhann and Mumbai Salsa were clashing so I spoke to my producer if we could logically end my character. Also cinema is any day a better medium. I like to work on one project at a time. I do not think the production house should have any issues with my taking up any project." Here's an actor who knows how to make hay while the sun shines!
