Shruti Sharma opens up on intense romantic scene
Saima, when quizzed about the most toughest sequence from the Sanjay Leela Bhansali directorial said, “There is a scene involving me and Iqbal in which we are romantic, meaning it’s a very romantic scene. That type of romance I had done for the first time on the screen. We were rolling, and we were talking, and it was difficult choreography. We were on top of each other.” She further added, “I got rashes on my body because it (chaff) was so harsh. I think we shot that scene for one whole day and when that scene was over, my kajal was smudged because there was dust and dirt. The scene looks so beautiful, but we only know how I looked when I stepped out of that bed of hay.”
