Abhishek Bachchan recently revealed that he has lost films due to his policy of not performing intimate scenes post the birth of his daughter Aaradhya. The actor said that he would never want to make his daughter uncomfortable at all when she watches his movies.

In an interview with Rajeev Masand, Abhishek revealed that since he had Aaradhya 8 years ago, it has changed the type of films he does. “I know it has changed one thing. There are certain kinds of films and scenes I’m not comfortable doing anymore. I would not want to do anything in which my daughter would feel uncomfortable or something that she’d question me about, saying ‘hey what’s going on here?’” the actor said.

Abhishek continued, “I’m thankful for it because as it is, I was very uncomfortable doing romantic scenes. So I’m not comfortable doing any intimate scenes, and I’d rather not.” The actor has said that he has made this a stipulation he says that to his directors before signing on, that if there’s a scene which has a lot of physical intimacy, he is not willing to do it.

He added, “If they say this is integral to my storytelling and they really can’t wrap their heads around doing it in a different aesthetic way, then I say ‘look, you have a choice, I’m very happy to bow out’.”

Abhishek also revealed that he has lost a lot of films due to this stipulation. “Yes, and that’s fine. No regrets, because I had a creative point of view, and the producer-director have a creative point of view, and they didn’t want to compromise on that and I completely respect that, and it’s perfectly fine,” he reasons.

The actor is currently gearing up for his digital debut with Amazon Prime’s ‘Breathe: Into the Shadows’. The show also stars Nithya Menen along with Saiyami Kher. The show is slated to release on July 10, 2020.
