Bollywood actor Kartik Aryan has won the hearts of the audience by playing romantic characters in his films. But do you know that the kissing scene of a film became such a big headache for him that he had to take 37 retakes to perfect it? Yes, this is not a rumour, but Karthik himself had shared this funny story in an interview.
Which movie is the story from?
This incident is from the 2014 film ‘Kaanchi: The Unbreakable’. This film was directed by famous filmmaker Subhash Ghai. In this, Karthik played the role of a lover boy, while his co-actress was Mishti Chakraborty. There was a kissing scene in the film, which put Karthik in trouble.
Kissing scene became a headache
When Karthik was asked about this scene, he laughed and said, “Subhash ji wanted a passionate and perfect kissing scene. But I myself did not know how to do it correctly. I was about to ask him, ‘Sir, please teach me!'”
Was Mishti making mistakes intentionally?
Karthik also said in the interview, “Maybe Mishti is making mistakes deliberately. After every retake, Subhash ji used to say to add more emotion in it. We started feeling as if we were really a couple and were behaving like lovers.”
Wasn’t the first onscreen kiss
However, this scene was not a new experience for Karthik. He had also done romantic scenes in his debut film. But this time director Subhash Ghai’s demand for perfection forced him to do retakes again and again.
Why were retakes taken 37 times?
According to Karthik, due to lack of emotion and perfection in the scene, retakes had to be done again and again. The actor jokingly said, “When the scene was finally OK, we all heaved a sigh of relief. This was the most difficult and memorable kissing scene of my career.”
Karthik’s acting in ‘Kanchi’
Even though ‘Kaanchi: The Unbreakable’ did not perform well at the box office, Karthik’s acting in it was appreciated. This film gave a new experience to Karthik’s career and he got a chance to work with big directors.
Why do fans like this funny story of Karthik?
This anecdote shows the simplicity and honesty of Karthik. His journey from an ordinary boy to becoming a superstar is inspiring. Today he is known for his romantic characters and unique style, but this story also highlights his struggle and learning process.
This experience of Kartik Aryan proves that how much hard work and funny stories are hidden behind the scenes that appear perfect on screen.
