Ex-flame Deepika Padukone and Ranbir Kapoor are shooting for Ayan Mukherjee’s ‘Yeh Jaawani Hai Deewani’ and Ayan being a close friend of both Deepika and Ranbir decided to skip intimate scene between them. Ayan understood that the duo won’t be comfortable doing intimate scene post break-up and hence he has decided to give away with intimate, lip-locking scenes between the two.

According to a source, "Considering the kind of close friendship Ayan shares with Ranbir, he's aware of the relationship the actor shared with Deepika. At the same time, he was also well aware of their split when he offered his film to her. His story has a few intimate scenes between the lead pair."

Being a thorough professional, the actors were reported to have no qualms doing the scenes. "Keeping in mind that they're thorough professionals, it would be natural to expect them to play their parts as actors. However, that time the shooting had not started. Now that the filming is underway, Ayan has changed his mind, “said the source.

Though Deepika and Ranbir are working together, Ayan could the sense the difference between them.

"Though they're like friends, doing intimate scenes for the camera is a different thing altogether. So, if Ayan senses any awkwardness on part of either of them, especially Deepika, in the intimate scenes, then he'd rather do away with them. If that comfort level is not there to be seen on camera, then that could affect the overall chemistry they share in the film," the source said.
