Anil Kapoor: What's the big deal about a kiss?

Anil Kapoor’s kiss in the trailer of his TV show 24, season 2, created quite a furore. But the actor thinks it’s just being true to the spirit of the original.

“This is not a light-hearted soap or sitcom. 24 is a political thriller. My character is shown to be in a relationship with a woman (Surveen Chawla). I’ve kissed in my films when there has been a need to. In 24, a lip-lock was needed. So we went ahead and did it. About time we stopped making a  fuss about these things. The content in 24 is not juvenile. We are looking at a series which has certain international standards to uphold.”
