The kiss in 'Hissss'

Bollywood may never show the kind of intense romance scenes as shown in Hollywood flicks, but gone are the days when Indian actors were reluctant to lock lips for a passionate steamy kiss in intense romance scenes.
Directors sitting at the editing table making the performers work easier by either inserting the visuals of two doves or colourful roses peck each other have also become passé. In the coming months, film lovers are going to see the lengthiest kissing scene ever in Bollywood. That is what the buzz from B-Town is.
The scene was shot for the upcoming international flick titled as 'Hissss' having the hot Mallika Sherawat in the role of a "Nagin" (the female snake having unique powers). The artists in the stretched out lip locking scene are Irfaan Khan and Divya Dutta.
Even though 'Hissss' is being directed by the Hollywood film maker Jeniffer Lynch, it cannot be called a Bollywood film and the fact that all the leading actors are from India will make it as endearing as 'Slumdog Millionaire'.
After being part of such acclaimed movies like 'Namesake', 'The Warrior' etc.. 'Irrfan Khan is no stranger to the ways of international film makers. But he still felt jittery when Jennifer told him about the steamy scene with Divya.
The director sensing that Irfan and Divya were quite tensed promised them that the scene will be taken care of in the most possible aesthetic manner. The scene was shot in Kerala. The actors had to do the act in front of the entire unit and not break the lip-lock until Jennifer Lynch asked them to do so.
