The sequence required Kareena and Devgn to kiss and make love.
However one hears Kareena, otherwise a very dedicated artiste on location in Bhopal, flatly refused do the intimate scene with her co-star.
In Vishal Bhardwaj's Omkara Kareena had dome some very intimate scenes with Devgn. But that came before her marriage.
Says a source from the Satyagraha location, `Prakashji wanted at least a brush-on-the-lips since this was a very passionate moment between the lead pair. But now after marriage Kareena won't do any intimate scenes with any of her co-stars.
Not even her own husband Saif. There is a certain code of conduct that Kareena must follow as a Pataudi bahu. Also, Kareena would do nothing to hurt her mother-in-law (Sharmila Tagore) whom she loves dearly. `
Sources from location say Prakash Jha had to make do with just the suggestion of a kiss and zero-proximity between the pair.
Says one of Kareena's co-stars from Satyagraha, `Bebo has always been fearless before the camera. It isn't as if she hasn't done kissing scenes. She kissed Aamir in 3 Idiots, didn't she?
But I think Heroine was her cut-off point as an actress. She did that very bold role with no holds barred. But I think she has made up her mind to avoid all intimacy on screen after marriage.
I feel that that's a good thing. Prakashji had to fudge the kissing scene and we just see Bebo lying fully-clothed and alone in bed. That's it. I think her wishes as an individual must be respected. `
