Dino Morea will now act and produce

Highlights

• Actor Dino Morea, who turned producer with the erotic thriller Jism 2, said he would continue to act in films besides producing some others.
• "I will be doing both producing and acting in films. But I have said no to direction," Dino told reporters here.
• Speaking at an event here, Dino said he never used the porn star status of Sunny Leone for promoting Jism 2.
• "We never used the tag of a porn star. She was selected because she looks very beautiful and film is a visual medium so we need to be attractive," he said when asked what made him and co-producer Pooja Bhatt select Sunny for the role.
• On his stint as a film producer, Dino, best known for the 2002 blockbuster Raaz, said he found the new role to be tougher.
• "Whatever the actor does, the consequences are faced by the producer. It is now that I realise all this," he said.
• Asked about his next acting assignment, the former supermodel said, "You will see me in a film very shortly."
• Describing himself as an ambitious person, he said "I think I am ambitious. I opened an ecommerce site, have restaurants, been into modelling, acting and now film producing," Dino said.
