Emraan Hashmi Reacts To The Frenzy Around His Kissing Scene In The Body, Says It Is Annoying

Back in the 2000s, Emraan Hashmi became the country’s first ‘serial kisser’, a badge he wore with honor.  There was a time when fans used to flock to the theaters to witness the master at his job. However, that is surely not all he had on offer. Films like Once Upon A Time In Mumbai, Shanghai and many others proved that he is an actor par excellence, kissing or no kissing.

For what seems like his second innings, Emraan Hashmi is choosing projects that highlight him as an actor and not a ‘serial kisser’. However, the trailer of his upcoming film The Body had a steamy kissing scene and fans were excited to see Emraan back in his territory. But looks like, all this attention on the kissing scene is not making Emraan happy.

Talking about the frenzy around the scene, he said, “I don't normally get upset with the tag but it is just irritating that though all of us are putting in so much effort to make a film -- there is a story, a plot, performances, music, and everything, all that people talk about is the kissing scene. You are boiling it down to just one thing. Personally, I have no issue with it but when I look at the bigger picture, it is annoying to see how people are just stuck with a small thing instead of showing interest in the whole film.”

Well, not that we don’t enjoy him as an actor, but Emraan Hashmi kissing on-screen that triggers a 2000s nostalgia that we can’t help but get excited about!
