I remember we completed the scene and we took seven takes to complete the scene. By the seventh take, we had lost count of the number of hours we had been filming. Finally, I fell on the floor and could not get back up. I was tired. I was crying uncontrollably. When I was sobbing, Nawaz and AK picked me up and held me tightly. I slowly heard a cut.
“I love him. He’s just a beautiful human being and an incredible co-actor to work with. Also, very shy and we had all those crazy scenes with him. He’s the shyest human being on earth. So he Had to do the scenes by holding them, I used to kiss them on the cheeks and say ‘Chal na sex scene karte hain’. It’s my job I need to create that atmosphere,” he said about Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
