Neil Nitin Mukesh has been reported to have be uncomfortable during the love-making scenes with Priyanka Chopra in Saath Khoon Maaf. The movie that is well in the news for being one of the best Priyanka Chopra films, has Neil Nitin Mukesh playing one of the lead roles. Neil had to shoot a love-making scene with Priyanka Chopra. In the love-making scene Priyanka Chopra’s acting was so skillful and the love scene turned out to be a lot more complicated than what Neil had imagined. And if reports are to believed, the actor had panicked.
Priyanka Chopra being a thorough professional did the love-making scene with flair and that is not really a big deal for her, considering that she has six more love-making scenes in the film. Neil had to go through many retakes before finally getting the shot right. Neil does not deny that that there was a problem with the comfort level with Priyanka. He says, . “But that’s because I hardly got to know her before working with her in Coorg. It was like … in and out. We didn’t get to know one another at all. I hardly had time to reach Coorg before we started shooting. There was no time for proper rehearsals.”
At the same time, Neil’s chemistry with Deepika Padukone is much talked about in the movie Lafangey Parindey. He agrees, “With Deepika it was different. It was just the two of us. We had ample time to know one another before we faced the camera. In Saat Khoon Maaf, I am just one of the seven men in Priyanka’s life. It was almost like Aadmi musafir hai aata hai jaat hai.”
But Neil has all praises for Priyanka and Vishal Bharadwaj, the director of the film. He says, “She is amazing on camera . I just loved watching her give her shots. As for Vishal Bhardwaj just being directed by him is a learning experience.” He believes that both Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone will make a huge impact with their performances in their respective films.
Neil says that his awkwardness at the love-making scene was not due to being camera-shy or due to Priyanka Chopra. He adds, “It isn’t as if I was camera shy. I just didn’t get enough time to get comfortable. I’ve done a love-making scene earlier with Rimi Sen in my first film Johnny Gaddaar.”
