Southern film actor Rana Daggubati, who is working with director Neeraj Pandey for the first time in "Baby", is impressed with the way the latter visualises cinema and hails him as a "comfortable taskmaster".
Sharing his experience of working with the "Special 26" director, Rana said: "He is a very comfortable taskmaster. He is very clear about what he wants on the screen. We get him quite easily in terms of the way he explain things."
Rana, who made his Bollywood debut with 2011 release "Dum Maaro Dum", will be seen in a pivotal role in "Baby", which will hit the theatres Jan 23 next year. For the film, he has shot some daredevil stunts with actor Akshay Kumar.
"It was a lot of fun working with him and it was smooth," Rana said.
Besides Akshay, "Baby" also features Anupam Kher, Danny Denzongpa, Rana Daggubati, Kay Kay Menon, Taapsee Pannu and Madhurima Tuli.
