Shakun Batra and Ananya Panday are coming together for the first time for a film called Gehraiyaan that has made a lot of noise due to that one word called intimacy. But this isn’t the first time we get to see no-holds-barred relationships or physical love. It’s all decoded in an exclusive interview with mid-day when the director and the actress try to decipher it all. 

When asked about being overloaded with the questions on intimacy in the film, Batra says, "Yeah of course. Just because you have an intimacy director doesn’t mean you’re going to do much bigger or bolder things. The idea is to take a step in the right direction. We are trying to normalise the conversation around intimacy. I knew it was going to play an important part in the film and I wanted to take the right step. When people see the film for themselves, they’ll realise there’s no shock value. It’s just a part of the story. I hope intimacy directors become a part of your crew as normally as a choreographer or an action director. That would be my hope."
