Actor Rajesh Tailang says he loved working with filmmaker Neeraj Pandey in "Aiyaary", and hopes to collaborate with him again.

"I have always been a fan of Neerajji. I loved his films like 'A Wednesday' and 'Special 26'. He is very precise and to the point. He knows what exactly he wants out of you and helps you to achieve that in a very friendly manner," Rajesh said in a statement.

"He establishes each of his characters beautifully. It was really great to be working with such a great director and human being. I hope to work with him in future too," he added.

"Aiyaary", set in Delhi, London and Kashmir, revolves around two strong-minded army officers having completely different views, yet right in their own ways. It is a real-life story based on the relationship between a mentor and a protege.

Slated to release on February 9, it features Sidharth Malhotra and Manoj Bajpayee in the lead roles.

On his role, Rajesh said: "I am playing negative role of Brigadier K Srinivas. It is always a challenge to play a character with grey shades."
