Bollywood is often embroiled in controversy, especially for the intimate scenes between the actors. While some scenes have managed to maintain boundaries, others don’t focus on the same. Remember when Triptii Dimri and Ranbir Kapoor went all bold for a scene in Animal? The particular sequence received backlash from the audience. Not only this, several other Bollywood movies have featured intimate scenes that have sparked controversy and backlash online, with both actors and filmmakers facing hate and criticism on social media platforms. Here are the top 5 intimate scenes in Bollywood that have sparked controversy.
Bollywood Intimate Scenes That Sparked Controversy
Triptii Dimri and Ranbir Kapoor in Animal
Triptii Dimri's intimate scene with Ranbir Kapoor in Animal might have earned her a new fan base, while a section of audience also criticised the actress for the same. She even got candid about the sequence with Ranbir in a conversation with Vogue. She said, “I know my reasons for doing the film. Sandeep sir [director Sandeep Reddy Vanga] was clear that it was going to be a small role, but I found the character interesting. If we start making decisions based on what audiences are going to say, then as actors, we won’t ever be able to do what we want to do. I want to choose roles that push me out of my comfort zone. There’s a lot of advice on offer and I listen to it all, but it comes down to instinct. I might make mistakes along the way, but I’m allowed to.”
#TriptiiDimri and #RanbirKapoor create magic in #Animal. Tripti's character, Zoya, adds an intense twist. She stands as one of the central, powerful forces in the captivating world of film.
