Director Nupur Asthana says she feels disappointed that people are only talking about actress Sonam Kapoor wearing a bikini in her upcoming film Bewakoofiyaan.
Sonam, 28, has worn a bikini on-screen for the first time in Bewakoofiyaan and it has become the talk of the town.
Around two years back, Sonam had said that she would never wear a bikini as she does not have a perfect body to carry it off. “It is disappointing that people are talking about it (bikini scene) only…the focus is on that.
There are other things too in the promo to look for. I am sure when people will see the film they will understand the relevance of it (bikini scene) and get to see a lovely film,” Nupur told.
Nupur insists the ‘bikini and kissing’ shot has not been added to merely grab eyeballs. “For the lovers who are dating for two years or so, it is natural to get close.
As for the bikini scene, the couple, along with their friends goes to a resort so it is obvious for her (Sonam) to wear it,” she said. “We are showing a real girl and not a supermodel wearing a bikini. It is there just for seconds in a film,” she added.
This is the second directorial venture of Nupur after Mujhse Fraandship Karoge (2011). (PTI)
