Sidharth Malhotra opens up about his kiss with Kiara Advani in ‘Shershaah’

Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani recently made a guest appearance in a popular show hosted by Kapil Sharma and talked about their kissing scene in their hit film ‘Shershaah’.

In the recent ‘uncersored’ episode from the show, Kapil is seen teasing Sidharth and Kiara who are rumoured to be dating in real life. He asked Sidharth if the kissing scene from the film was his ‘creative input’ and said “Yeh waise story mein likha tha ya aapki creative input thi? (was the kissing scene a part of the script or was it your creative input?)

To this, Sidharth gave assurance that 90% of Shershaah’s story is actually what had happened in Captain Vikram Batra’s life. However, Kapil quickly counterquestioned him asking about the remaining 10% and left Sidharth-Kiara laughing.

“Nahi, nahi, woh bhi sab humne kirdaar ke liye… Karna pada, bohot mushkil se, forced… Zabardasti karna pada (No, no, it was all for the characters of the film. We had to do it with great difficulty and forcefully),” Sidharth added while leaving everyone in splits.

Meanwhile, speaking about his bond with Kiara, Sidharth had told ETimes, “I think even personally, there is a sense of regularness to her, which we both connect on. I am a boy who is from Delhi and I am not connected to the industry per se, but now have been here for many years. She has been working for a couple of years as well. We both have lives away from the industry and that is something that we connect on and cherish. Sometimes you get so embroiled in all these things that you forget to have a regular life. I think both of us have regular lives and that’s what we connect on.”

When asked Kiara about her co-star, she asserted that Sidharth is one of her closest friends in the industry. “As a co-star, Sidharth is extremely driven and focused. He loves to prep a lot and does a lot of readings. That’s very similar to the way I like to work on a film. So, in that sense, we got along very well. As a friend, I’d say he is one of my closest friends in the industry. I think, even as a friend, he’s full of life and always fun to be around," Kiara said.
