Indian filmmaker Shakun Batra’s much-anticipated movie Gehraiyaan was released on Amazon Prime on February 11. The director has described his movie as a mirror into modern adult relationships. But since the
trailer first released in December, one of the biggest talking points around the movie has been the intimate scenes between lead stars Deepika Padukone and Siddhant Chaturvedi. The focus on the intimacy in the movie was increased by the fact that Shakun hired an
intimacy director. Shakun maintains that though integral, intimacy is but a small part of the movie’s narrative.
The trailer gave a few glimpses of Padukone and Chaturvedi getting intimate and their chemistry is quite clear. It will be interesting to see how well this works
out in the movie. Besides Padukone and Chaturvedi, Gehraiyaan also stars Ananya Panday and Dhairya
Karwa. The movie is backed by Karan Johar’s
Dharma Productions and Viacom18 Studios.
