Tannishta Chatterjee and Brett Lee get intimate

Tannishta Chatterjee, last seen in Gulab Gang, is all set to be seen opposite cricketer-turned-actor Brett Lee in UnIndian.

This cross-cultural Indo-Australian film is a love story and will see the Indian actress and Brett share quite a few intimate scenes.

Director Anupam Sharma has advised his lead pair to spend some time together before they face the camera as the lovemaking scenes in the film are likely to be quite bold. Says a source, "Tannistha plays a single divorcee named Meera re-discovering love in a distant land. Such a level of intimacy in such a love story was last seen in Mira Nair's Mississippi Masala." In that film, Sarita Chowdhary pulled out all stops with Denzel Washington.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was apparently the first choice for UnIndian, but it is learned that Huma Qureshi's name was also in the fray.

When asked about her intimate scenes, Tannishta simply said, "Let that be a surprise. I'm just excited about doing this film. I got a call. I liked the script. And I was on!"
