‘Mera Aur Uska…’: Tanushree Dutta Calls Her Chemistry With Emraan Hashmi Like That Of A Brother-Sister

Tanushree and Emraan were in three movies together, but people still remember their kiss in Aashiq Banaya Aapne the most. Recently, Tanushree said that those kissing scenes were a bit uncomfortable for her.

“Emraan, for me, has always been an actor from Day 1. I did three films with him. We shot for a kissing scene in ‘Chocolate’ too, but they didn’t keep it. It was very awkward the first time. The second time, the awkwardness was reduced. Because personally, in real life, we don’t have any chemistry with each other. He does have a kisser-boy image, but he is not the most comfortable kisser. And neither am I,” Tanushree told Filmgyan.

During the same interview, she dubbed their chemistry like that of a brother and a sister. She said, “The biggest and top-most actresses have done kissing, lovemaking scenes. Unko koi kuch nehi bolta. Mujhse sabko dikkat ho jati hai. Main short-skirt pehenu ya koi aisa scene kar du. Acting hai, bhai. Usmein mera aur Emraan ka kuch personal tha nehi. (No one says anything to them. I face difficulties. Whether I wear a short skirt or do a scene like that, everyone has an issue. It’s just acting. There was nothing between personal between me and Emraan in it). Mine and Emraan’s chemistry is like brother-sister. Literally.”

• Tanushree started acting in films like Aashiq Banaya Aapne and Bhagam Bhag.
• In 2008, she bravely spoke up about being harassed by a co-star while filming.
• This inspired many others to share their own experiences on social media, starting the #MeToo movement in India.
