That became easy because the awkwardness that you see was all-natural because Manzu didn’t know how to kiss that well. I think that’s because Manzu’s (Pratik Gandhi’s) character was very closed and he was still accepting his sexualityand its physicality.
It also makes you immediately comfortable around your co-star. After you are done with them, it opens you up and it’s just a cakewalk thereon. So, on the first day, we were done with all the strong, intimate scenes.
I think Hansal Mehta played smartly and shot all the intimate scenes on day one. The episode also features some intimate scenes with Pratik Gandhi. After I had given the nod, I just pushed myself into it and didn’t feel uncomfortable. Yes, there was an initial bit of discomfort which I handled before signing. I am used to making unconventional choices and that’s why I didn’t feel awkward. This just seemed to be another such choice. When I chose to become a chef in 1990, in our generation, it was a very unconventional choice that I made against the grain. A post shared by Ranveer Brar essayed the role of a gay man ‘Rajveer’ in the episode.
