The naked truth about Neil Nitin Mukesh….

Madhur Bhandarkar, fearing more snips and swipes from the censor board, has decided to not let Neil Nitin Mukesh go completely nude after all in his movie Jail. And, when you see the pale and pudgy Neil in the pic above, I think you’ll agree it’s a wise decision not only practically, but also aesthetically. There’s only so punishment we are willing to take from Bollywood.

Frankly, I am surprised at how lean Neil can look with clothes on, and how plump he actually is in the buff. After New York and all that basketball with John Abraham, wasn’t he inspired to get more in shape? I mean, I don’t see an iota of muscle anywhere, dude! Maybe you forgot that the camera adds 10-12 pounds and you should factor that in when preparing for a nude scene? A few less pancakes, lattes and chapatis perhaps?

Very sad, considering that this scene in Jail could have been a milestone marking male nudity in Indian cinema.
