He is the son of yesteryear actress Zaheeda (Dev Anand starrer ‘Gambler’ fame) and nephew of Sanjay Dutt.
Nilesh Sahay is making his debut in choreographer-turned-director Ganesh Acharya's venture ‘Angels’. The fresher looks up to his mama Sanjay for inspiration and consider the actor’s films like ‘Rocky’, ‘Vaastav’, ‘Hathyar’ and the Munnabhai movies as his school.
As for Dutt, he has parted an important advice to his bhatija – that is to learn the things the hard way. Although he will be his big support, Sanjay feels that the debutant should make his own decisions and learn from his day-to-day experiences.
Coming back to the film…. Co-starring along with Nilesh in ‘Angels’ is yet another newbie Madalasa Sharma. The film is said to be a love story between a boy and a handicapped girl.
‘Angels’ is expected to hit the screens in February 2011.
