Kajal Aggarwal, who has not enacted in a lip-lock scene was caught unawares, when a Hindi actor kissed her forcefully, while shooting for an emotional scene in Malaysia, according to reports. For an actress, who has always been conscious about the kind of roles she picks up, her Hindi co-star's action came in as a rude shock as she was not aware of the lip-lock scene, the script had.
When actor Randeep Hooda grabbed her and went in for the lip-lock, Kajal politely withdrew and reportedly walked away without saying a word to her co-actor. The film's director Deepak had to explain Kajal the importance of the scene when she requested him to delete the already captured scene and go for another take sans the kissing part. She finally gave in and agreed to shoot for her first lip-lock scene in Bollywood, the director has said.
"Well, I do remember Kajal had told me that she does not do kissing scenes on screen, as she is a huge south Indian movie star, and this would impact her career in south movies. But let me tell you, there was no intention to malign her or kiss her out of force, but it was the emotional moment between two lovers as per the script, and I generally prefer actors doing scenes impromptu, so I followed the emotional quotient of the scene, and made a go at it. Sure it did take Kajal in a shocking zone, and she did back off calling for a cut, but later on once I had explained to her the significance of the lip lock, she surrendered herself to the script, and went on to do the scene with all the passion she could put in," Deepak said in a statement.
