New Delhi:
Neena Gupta, before the release of Lust Stories 2, recalled her experience of shooting intimate scenes for a project. In an interaction with Instant Bollywood, Neena Gupta recalled when she shot a kissing scene for a TV show titled Dillagi and said that she “couldn’t sleep all night” after shooting the bit. “As an actor you have to do all kinds of scenes, sometimes you have to step in mud, sometimes you have to stand in the sun for several hours. Many years ago, I did a serial with Dilip Dhawan. It had the first-ever lip-to-lip kissing scene on Indian TV. I couldn’t sleep all night,” Neena Gupta told Instant Bollywood.
Neena Gupta said that she wasn’t very comfortable with the idea of shooting kissing scenes. “It wasn’t like he was a friend, we were acquaintances. He was good-looking, but that doesn’t really matter in these situations, because physically and mentally, I wasn’t ready. I was so tense, but I convinced myself to go through with it.” the veteran actress added.
Neena Gupta added during the session that as soon as she got done with the scene, she rinsed her mouth with Dettol. “It’s like some people can’t do comedy, some people can’t cry on camera. I drilled it into my head, and I did it. As soon as it ended, I rinsed my mouth with Dettol. It was so difficult for me to kiss somebody who I don’t know,” Neena Gupta told Instant Bollywood.
