Ask Neil anything to do in a movie, he would be apt in doing that, but when it comes to lip-locking, he just wants to run away. The same thing happened with him when he was supposed to lip-lock Deepika in a love making scene of ‘Lafangey Parindey’.

 

Deepika is a good kisser, as she has done it before with Saif in ‘Love Aaj Kal’, but she might have been shocked to see a hesitant Neil this time. They were supposed to share a kiss in ‘Lafangey Parindey’ shooting scene, but it took hours to convince Neil to go for it. After director, Pradeep Sarkar explained the necessity of the scene, he said a yes.

Sources reveal, “Pradeep persuaded Neil and he finally saw his director’s point of view. But Neil was nervous. Deepika had kissed before on screen. Not Neil. He first suggested a peck. But he was finally persuaded to do a long torrid smooch comparable in intensity and duration with Aamir Khan and Karisma Kapoor’s kiss in Raja Hindustani”.

In fact he has refused to kiss his co-stars in the previous movies and showed much reluctance.

Sources add, “Neil has refused to kiss in all his films. In fact, his first director Sriram Raghavan threw a fit when Neil refused to kiss Rimi Sen. In his second film Tera Kya Hoga Johnny director Sudhir Mishra insisted Neil to kiss Shahana Goswami. Neil refused. Even in Jail where there was a love-making scene with Mugda Godse Neil refused to kiss”.

That’s really weird, as kissing has nothing to do with the personal sentiments or likings of a star. Meanwhile, he refuses to even give an explanation about it.
