Jackie Shroff opens up on doing intimate scenes for ‘The Interview: Night of 26/11’

Veteran actor Jackie Shroff just got done with the release of his new flick ‘The Interview: Night of 26/11’. Apparently for the movie he had to do some intimate scenes. Talking about the same he told Bollywood Hungama that he was really embarrassed doing them.

 “I was embarrassed, I was really embarrassed. I get flustered when I do these things. I’ve been doing them, that’s why I’m an actor.”

He went on to say that so many people, including the director, assistant, crew members, and the entire globe, are watching one on camera with an unblinking eye that it gets really awkward. He was quick to emphasise, however, that one must do it because it is a job. According to the actor, if the character necessitates it, it must appear convincing.

Jackie also discussed his part in 'Radhe', revealing when he was approached for the part. According to him, they must have thought about it when they gave him the part, so he let them handle it and went there like a canvas with the idea that they could paint whatever they wanted on him.

 In the film ‘The Interview: Night of 26/11’, Jackie plays a war journalist who is asked to interview a Bollywood star. However, he soon discovers that there is more to her than what meets the eye.

This year, Jackie has appeared in a number of productions. He was last seen as a police officer in Prabhudeva's ‘Radhe: Your Most Wanted Bhai’. Salman Khan, Disha Patani, and Randeep Hooda also acted in the film. He had previously appeared in ‘Hello Charlie’ starring Aadar Jain. This year, he also made his web series debut with Disney+ Hotstar's ‘OK Computer’. He was also featured as a special guest on ‘Dance Deewane 3’ with Suniel Shetty recently.

Jackie will next be seen in Rohit Shetty's ‘Sooryavanshi’, which also stars Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif. The film was supposed to be released in theatres last summer, but owing to the Covid-19 outbreak, it has been postponed indefinitely.
