Vidya Balan recalls first intimate scene

During a conversation with The Hollywood Reporter India, Vidya recalled shooting the intimate scene in Parineeta (2005), where she played the role of Lalita and Sanjay Dutt portrayed Girish.

Recalling the day of the shoot, Vidya shared, “He (Sanjay) came to me in the morning and said, ‘Vidya, I’m really nervous. I don’t know how we’re going to do this.’ And I’m looking at him thinking, this is Sanjay Dutt (laughs). That in itself was something (laughs again). And then, he’s so seasoned… he’s telling me this — seasoned in every way (laughs). I couldn’t resist that.”
