Liplocks and intimate scenes have been popping up in prime time shows of late; but still there are actors who are not ready to accept the concept of kissing and consummation on television. Life OK’s Ek Boond Ishq may create mind bobbling chemistry between its two lead characters essayed by Viraf Patel and Chhavi Pandey, but when the creatives asked Chhavi to smooch Viraf during the shoot of a consummation sequence, she outrightly denied it. Aila!!! Informed a credible source, “For an upcoming consummation scene, the creatives of BBC Worldwide planned a long smooch as part of its script. However, Chhavi refused to smooch as she was not comfortable doing such scenes and it was replaced by a hug.” We contacted Chhavi for some more information on the same. She confirmed the same and clarified, “Television is a medium which reaches out to household audience. People watch the shows with their families. I do not want any reason for people to switch to another channel due to discomfort. I belong to a conservative Brahmin family and my parents would not like to see me indulge into something like this on-screen; moreover I am not comfortable.” “The sequence has been crafted beautifully justifying love, affection and passion for each other by the production house. I am sure the viewers will enjoy watching Tara (Chhavi) and Mrutyunjay’s (Viraf) chemistry.” She added. Hmm…fair enough! Smooch smooch ki kahaani!!!
