Bollywood celebrities and their take on on-screen kissing

Asin

Asin doesn't approve kissing on-screen. She has given a number of successful films but never indulged in it.

Fawad Khan

Fawad Khan was recently in the news for possibilities of turning down 'Battle of Bittora' opposite Sonam Kapoor. He said he was not comfortable performing intimate scenes. He also said that the audience in his country (Pakistan) is not yet comfortable enough to be exposed to such a content. Even otherwise, we never saw Fawad kissing on-screen in either of his Bollywood endeavours ('Khoobsurat' & 'Kapoor & Sons').

Sidharth Malhotra

Sidharth Malhotra has no inhibitions regarding kissing. However, he does admit that it all gets mechanical. " Kissing (on screen) might look enjoyable, but it’s like mathematics or an algebra equation. You are constantly adjusting your kiss for the camera, with things like whose nose will come where, which angle is good to capture it, or whose hand goes where.", he said.

Sonakshi Sinha

Sonakshi Sinha is another woman who never kisses on-screen. We never heard her expressing her dislike for it. But her actions say that she is another actor who does not approve it.

Sushant Singh Rajput

Sushant Singh Rajput is one of the most promising actors among the gen Y. Sushant is pretty cool with kissing on-screen. When asked about the same he was once quoted saying, "is everyone so stressed about it? It’s just an innocent way to express a thousand feelings without verbalizing it. Just let it be.".

Shraddha Kapoor

Shraddha Kapoor feels kissing on-screen is no big deal but at the same time wants to do it only when her character demands for it. "I wonder why a kiss is such a big deal in today’s day and age? Audiences don’t make a fuss about a kiss. By now, they’re used to it. As for doing kissing scenes, I am quite conservative at heart. I will do them only when necessary.", Shraddha stated during an interview with IANS.

Saif Ali Khan

Firstpost published a report where the Nawab of Bollywood expressed his dislike towards kissing on-screen. Saif believes that in Indian films, kisses are often not required and when done,they are not executed properly. He further went on to say that it doesn't fit us and displaying affection publicly is not something that is as per our culture.

Emran Hashmi

Emraan Hashmi says he is absolutely tired of kissing on-screen. All his films have one or more intimate sequences and he has earned the ‘serial kisser’ name. But kissing in a film is not really as great as it looks. However, Emraan and his kissing acts are almost inseparable now.

Salman Khan

Kissing on-screen is a big NO for Salman Khan. He has spent decades in Bollywood, has given us numerous blockbusters and has worked with almost every lady in tinsel town. Even though he has set his own legacy, he never kissed any of his leading ladies and doesn’t find it right.
