Sharman Joshi’s daughter unhappy with father’s role in Hate Story 3

‘Hate Story 3’ marks the beginning of a new genre for Sharman Joshi; and shifting to an erotic thriller from character-oriented films ain’t easy. Apart from the viewers who’re too used to seeing Sharman playing entirely different shades, the close ones don’t always react well to such sudden changes. An example of that is his 10 years old daughter who didn’t quite like her dad’s ‘actions’ in the film.

“I was the first one to show promo of my film and her reaction wasn’t too good to it. Thanks to her cousin sister who made her understand that this is a part of my work. Well, I might have to bribe her with chocolates or holiday but I think she is fine. She is 10 year old and fortunately has friends whose fathers are also involved in films and seen them in action far more than she has seen me. So, she understands that this is work.”

This is Sharman’s first time in an erotic film. However, a child might not understand that this is just a part of his work. We hope she likes the film!
