Off late, kissing and intimacy sequences have become quite common in films. Neither heroes, nor heroines are objecting to lock lips with their on-screen partners if ‘situation or scene demands’. Curiously, one young hero is putting ‘won’t do lip-lock’ clause in his contracts.

Nikhil, who is riding high with Ekkadiki Pothavu Chinnavada had attended a TV show along with his actress Nandita swetha. When asked whether he enjoys kissing his heroines, Nikhil replied saying, “My mom permitted me to act in films with a condition of avoiding kissing scenes. Seriously, I haven’t kissed any of my heroines in my films hitherto.

And in EPC there was a romantic scene where I was needed to kiss my co-star Hebah Patel on her lips. She was ready for the scene with a chewing gum in her mouth. But, I said no. She was stunned initially, but I explained her about my promise to my mom. The lip-lock you’ve seen in film was just a camera trick.”

Stunningly, when Swetha was asked about her first kiss experience, she said, “I am very frank. I had the experience when I was studying my 9th standard.”

Interim, EPC is turning out to be one of the biggest hits of 2016.
