There was a time when actresses were extremely uncomfortable getting intimate onscreen, unlike today’s time. But still, there are few actors even today who refrain from getting intimate on the screen. Shabana Azmi who recently made heads turn with a lip-lock second with Dharmendra in Karan Johar‘s directorial Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahaani was once upon a time uncomfortable doing intimate scenes on the big screen. There was a time when she was called a stupid girl by late veteran actor Shashi Kapoor over saying no to getting intimate with him in a film. BollywoodLife has a WhatsApp channel that brings you all the latest updates from the Entertainment News section. Shashi Kapoor was very mean towards Shabana Azmi after she said no to doing an intimate scene with him. In her latest interview with Zoom, Shabana Azmi recalls how Shashi scolded her for saying no to do an intimate scene,” When you said mummy mummy mai bhi actress banungi, tab tumhe yeh khayal nahi aaya.” She called the actor crazy. In the same interview, Shabana Azmi revealed that Shashi Kapoor was the only actor she took an autograph from.” I have been a fan of Shashi Kapoor since I think I was 9. When I was in school, he would come with his family every Sunday to Prithviraj Kapoor’s house and Prithviraj Kapoor was my immediate neighbour. So, I used to save on my pocket money and buy a black-and-white photo of Shashi Kapoor and every Sunday I would go and I would get it signed. He’s the only person whose autograph I took on his photograph. For me, when I was suddenly cast opposite him in Hira Aur Patthar, it was completely unbelievable and that the thing about Shashi was that he schooled me”. Shabana Azmi is one of the most successful and versatile actors of her time and even today she is killing it with her screen presence.
