Actor Siddhant Chaturvedi talks about shooting intimate scenes with Deepika Padukone for Shakun Batra’s latest film “Ghehraiyaan”, saying it would have been difficult if the director didn’t make him and the rest of the cast feel safe and secure. Siddhant also reacted to the comments stating that she and Deepika needed her husband Ranveer Singh’s permission to do those intimate scenes.

Talking to Bollywood Bubble whether those comments offended him, Siddhant said, “Not really so, because we are professionals, we know our equation. I remember when we were shooting for this film Ranveer came to Goa for a few days. We chilled, we partyed. In fact, when I signed the film, he was the first person I called and he was really happy. He has been showering love on me since the time of Gully Boy and he is my mentor in life, so it was all right. Deepika is by profession. When people say these things, what can one do (what can one do)? We are doing our work (we are only doing our work).

However, Siddhant said that it took him a long time to go about those scenes. “I think we did it in the most wonderful way with an intimacy director Dar (Guy) coming on board. It took me a while to get comfortable with this too but it was very important as it should not have been for shock value. It was part of the film. Now that you’ve seen the movie, you know it’s not coercion or anything. It is there because it is part of the story,” he said.

Deepakhyaan revolves around Deepika Padukone’s Alisha, a woman whose six-year-old relationship has turned monotonous. She has an affair with Zain, the fiancee of her cousin Tia’s (Ananya Pandey), played by Siddhant Chaturvedi.
