I am tired of kissing on screen. I have to do it because it is synonymous with me. Also, the producers and directors want to add that element. I don't give it too much importance.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As an audience member, if I go to a film, and I am watching two actors, and they're kissing, and it looks like they don't even want to be kissing, it just takes me out of the film.
Kissing in the movies is a real art - figuring out where to put your heads so it looks good on camera. I have had other co-stars who couldn't work that out, which made it a lot harder for me.
Kissing in films, it's just another thing you have to do. It kind of becomes as technical as how to open a door, really.
The only thing about kissing anyone on screen is that forced intimacy is never pleasant. If you don't want to be kissing someone, it's hard to get over that barrier, and so there's a reluctance to be that close to someone.
I have kissed in almost all the films except in 'Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai.' I'm not sure if my kissing on screen has anything to do with the success of a film, but producers make sure to put a kissing scene or two. They feel my kissing scenes are my lucky streak.
Intimate scenes or a kiss is a very technical aspect of filmmaking. It is extremely mechanical.
I am not against any kind of physical intimacy on screen, but kissing is a big no unless it's with Jennifer. I'd like to kiss her on-screen as we do it at home, too. If we get paid for it, that's even better.
I don't kiss on screen. Period.
I can't bear kissing scenes.
I have to keep explaining to people that screen kissing isn't quite the same; it's close, but it isn't quite the same as a normal, real-life kiss.
