“We shot for a kissing scene in Chocolate too, but they didn’t keep it. It was very awkward the first time. The second time, the awkwardness was reduced. Because personally, in real life, we don’t have any chemistry with each other. He does have a kisser-boy image, but he is not the most comfortable kisser. And neither am I,” said Tanushree.

Emraan Hashmi wants to move on from ‘serial kisser’ tag

Meanwhile, Emraan Hashmi, who was last seen in Tiger 3, recently talked about how he wants to get rid of the ‘serial kisser’ tag that has been associated with him. He said that it was given to himself as a joke, but the tag stuck with people.

“Then lies an eternal trap for all actors where if you are playing a commercial lead, you will be trapped by a certain archetype of a character or a hero. And here it was this, whatever you call it (serial kisser), it was an absurd name. It was given to myself as a joke but stuck with people for some reason,” he told Indian Express. He admitted that he did benefit from it, however, he wanted to move on and try something different.
