Aryan Khan's The Ba***ds of Bollywood has been raking in immense praise from fans and critics alike. A particular scene, starring Sahher Bambba, who plays Karishma Talvar, and her on-screen brother Shaumik Talvar aka Divik Sharma, has taken the internet with storm. The scene depicts Shaumik engaged in a masturbation act, while Karishma reacts with shock and discomfort upon seeing him. Now, in an exclusive conversation with The Daily Jagran, Sahher Bambba recalled the experience of filming it.

Sahher Bambba calls Divik Sharma's masturbation scene 'hilarious'

When asked about co-star Divik Sharma’s masturbation scene, which some viewers described as raw and others considered bold, the actress shared that the entire team, including Divik himself, found the scene hilarious right from the script stage. She noted that it was written in a way that made it very funny on paper and shooting it turned out to be equally enjoyable.

Sahher said, "We all, including Dvik himself, we all had a lot of fun just filming that scene because it was just so funny on paper. And the whole show is only a fun and humorous show. So, Aryan was just living to the essence of the show that he was creating and which was that of humour and I think he stuck to that."

Sahher also shared that when the project first came to her, it remained untitled for a long time since the climax—and with it, the title—was kept under wraps. Despite that, her instinct told her it would be a big project, especially as it marked Aryan Khan’s directorial debut under Red Chillies. "

"The title was revealed to us very later because firstly, we didn't know the climax only. So, it was an untitled show for the longest time. And my gut feeling towards the project was I knew it will be a big one because obviously it's Aryan Khan's first directorial debut, produced by Red Chillies. So I remember during the audition, when I got a call that, we are testing a lot of people for Karishma Talvar, would you be keen on auditioning for the part? I just remember just feeling and praying toward that I wish that I can be a part of this project in any capacity because it's such a big one and I'm so glad that Aryan cast me as Karishma Talvar."
