Mumbai, Jun 9 (IANS): Actress Tannishtha Chatterjee, who has earlier worked with Abhay Deol, has now teamed with his elder cousin Sunny for her first commercial Hindi film "I Love New Year". And she is all praise for the actor.

"Abhay chooses his films a little differently from Sunny. Sunny is a far more mainstream star in a different generation. I had an amazing time working with him. Sunny Deol is a thorough gentleman," Tannishtha told IANS.

The actress, who has earlier worked with Abhay in the 2009 film "Road, Movie", says both the brothers are different to work with.

"They come from different traditions of cinema. Sunny is much senior to us. When we saw his films, it was bit of a star thing and Abhay is like a friend. But I think Sunny is so wonderfully humble and such a gentleman and this is something that Abhay had told me before I started working with Sunny," Tannishtha said.

"I Love New Year" will release very soon this year, she said, adding that she "didn't know what to expect from a Bollywood film".
