During a chat with Radio Nasha, Sayani Gupta revealed that a co-star continued to kiss her even after the director called “cut.” The actress said, “I could write a book about intimacy and I am grateful that this is now a profession in India. I had worked with one (intimacy coordinator) during the filming of Margarita with a Straw in 2013.” However, Sayani Gupta said that few people always end up crossing boundaries and “taking advantage”. She said, “I’ve been in a situation where an actor lingered on a kiss after a cut, and you are left uncomfortable.” She called acts like these “subtle” but “very indecent”.

Sayani Gupta further recalled another incident while filming for Prime Video’s series Four More Shots Please, in which she had to wear a short dress.

However, the actress was all praises for her co-star Prateik Babar. She thanked him for making her feel safe while filming an intimate scene and said, “His eyes didn’t shift for a second. He kept looking into my eyes. My respect for him reached a new level.” ‘Sikandar’: Sathyaraj and Prateik Babbar Join Salman Khan in Upcoming Action Film.
