Vikrant Massey and Taapsee Pannu shared screen in the recently released film 'Haseen Dillruba'. About a week ago, during a promotional interview for the film, Taapsee shared that her co-stars Vikrant and Harshvardhan Rane were scared about filming intimate scenes with her. Vikrant has now shared his side of the story and clarified Taapsee's statement.

He said that Taapsee's lively and happy go lucky nature led her to joke about something which news outlets grabbed and made viral. He said, "Naah, aisa kuch nahi hai (It's nothing like that). Taapsee is a very jovial person. Woh 5 minutes se zyaada chup nahin baithh sakti; woh hansti rehti hai poora time (She keeps laughing the entire time). She just said in one interview -- all in fun -- 'intimate scenes kartey time yeh ladke dar rahe the (the guys were scared about doing the intimate scenes'). And it got picked up by a few publications that believe in clickbait headlines and articles -- because they help them in reaching out to people. These articles, however, help us too in reaching out to people. That's a great symbiotic relationship, and we are not worried about it."

He concluded, "But if I have to clear the air about it, nobody was scared. Of anything. We are thorough professionals. If a certain level of kindness or gentleness is taken as being intimidated, then people really need to sort of understand different aspects of relationships."
