Enter Salman Khan, the highly committed actor who apparently doesn’t even listen to himself once he has made a commitment!
A scene in his upcoming movie Kick required him to kiss Jacqueline Fernandez on the lips, to which Salman said a clear ‘No’. In fact he even asked Sajid Nadiadwala, the director to remove that particular scene from the movie and to rework on the script.
The scene in question
required Salman to pass out on the sofa and thereafter, Jacqueline was
supposed to seduce him. But, after the scene was narrated to Salman, the
actor rejected it, claiming it was "cheap and vulgar" to have
Jackie seduce him in this manner.
Shahrukh had said at the
HT Leadership Summit 2012, “I had a couple of rules actually – that I
won’t ride a horse and I won’t kiss. Both are cumbersome. I don’t know
how to do both on screen,”
Interestingly, though
Salman had done a similar scene in his old film Biwi No 1, where he had
to lie upon Sushmita Sen, he rejected the one with Jackie as he's
deliberately refraining from doing such scenes on-screen.
Srk added that he had to do the scene because the story demanded it.
It should be noticed that
Salman is perhaps the only actor in Bollywood, who's not performed a
kissing scene till date. Well, we appreciate the fact that Salman is
concerned about what his little fans see on-screen, we are only
wondering how Jacqueline is taking this rejection?
Shahrukh further said, “I
will be very honest. Adi (Aditya Chopra), Yashji and Katrina, and I say
this with all humility and thankfulness to them, that they knew I was
awkward, I had issues and I am a very easy actor to work with. They are
like my family and they said, ‘You don’t have to do this’ and then they
got together and they forced me and then even paid me for it.”
