Discussing the issue of gender discrimination in intimate scenes, Tamannaah Bhatia highlighted that male actors generally do not face backlash or criticism for their involvement in such scenes. However, she emphasised that when a female actor films intimate scenes, people quickly judge and criticise her.

During the interview, Tamannaah was asked to recount a misogynistic comment she had encountered. The comment in question was, "Kya majboori thi ki ye aise scenes kar rahi hai (What compulsion did she have to do such scenes)?" In response, the actress expressed her astonishment and described it as a "strange" comment.

Bhatia further stated that she does not restrict herself to portraying only modest roles as she aims to grow as a performer throughout her career. She expressed her disappointment, as she never anticipated facing such criticism for taking on intimate scenes in her web series.

'Lust Stories 2' released on June 29. Apart from them, Kajol, Mrunal Thakur, Amruta Subhash, and others also played significant roles in the film.
