Tanushree Dutta says 'Faced difficulties for my kissing scenes, Emraan Hashmi & my chemistry is like brother-sister,' 'Jannat' actor reacts

Emraan Hashmi and Tanushree Dutta have worked in films like ‘Aashiq Banaya Aapne,’ ‘Chocolate,’ and ‘Good Boy Bad Boy’. Once, the actress was quoted saying, “The biggest and top-most actresses have done kissing, lovemaking scenes. No one says anything to them. I face difficulties. Whether I wear a short skirt or do a scene like that, everyone has an issue. It’s just acting. There was nothing between personal between me and Emraan in it. Mine and Emraan’s chemistry is like brother-sister. Literally.”

And while talking to ScoopWhoop, Hashmi had a take on it. “Did you hear Tanushree’s quote three weeks ago? I don’t know if it was a verbatim quote or what. She said that it was like ‘brotherly’,” quipped the star.

He added, “What did the director tell her and what did he tell me?’ I had another narrative going on my head and she had another narrative going in her head. I was never told the story about incest. I don’t know what she was thinking but fine.”

Hashmi is the latest celebrity to talk about Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal, a film that continues to be the hot topic of debate. In a podcast with Subhankar Mishra, the actor praised director Sandeep Reddy Vanga’s audacity to tell this story. He also confessed he didn’t watch the film in cinemas but on OTT.

Hashmi said, “I don’t watch a lot of films but I have watched Animal and I think its commendable how he played a character, with grey shades and is not easy to like, with such conviction. This is commendable.”

Animal , which hit the screens on December 1, was one of the highest earning Hindi films of 2023 despite being criticised for its poor portrayal of women, misogyny and graphic violence.

Directed by   Sandeep Reddy Vanga , the action drama had its digital premiere on Netflix last week. The film also stars Anil Kapoor, Bobby Deol, Rashmika Mandanna and Triptii Dimri.
