"Mithunda announced before the shoot he wants to watch me swaying to the beats and he will just be matching my steps. Despite me having done so many films and delivered hits it is always a humbling experience for anybody sharing frame with an actor-dancer of his caliber," Dev told PTI here.
"It is you who will dominate the scenes. Who else but your father can say such things," an emotional Dev said at the trailer launch of the Ravi Kinnagi directed film.
"I always tell Mithunda you give me tips and whatever tips he give, even small ones, it helps a lot in your expressions. Let Mithunda remain as youthful for ever," he said.
Apparently trying to reinvent himself, the 'Buno Hans' actor feels it is time to give a twist to even his mainstream roles.
Coming to his co-star Koel Mallick, again in Herogiri, Dev said, "I have lost count of the films I did with Koel.
"She is the one who has proved career doesn't come to end after marriage. But can set out for another beginning. She is gorgeous in Herogiri as well."
Director Ravi said, "The energy level of all the three stars - Mithun, Dev and Koel - will show on the screen which is a fulsome entertainer with emotional quotient."
Herogiri, produced by Surinder Films, will hit theatres on January 23.
