It is usually the women who act prudish when it comes to intimate scenes.

In a twist of the sexes, Jimmy Shergill refused to lock lips with Nandana Sen in the movie, 'Strangers'. Ironically, director Anand Rai was skeptical about Nandana's reaction to this rather emotional moment.

He was naturally caught off guard when Jimmy refused. Rai now defends Jimmy, adding that he is always open to inputs from the cast and the crew.

Jimmy did not think it was important to the scene, to kiss, and his director agreed with him.

Looks like Jimmy is another name on the list of actors who do not kiss, following Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan.
