He says, “I think a conspiracy was hatched. There was no way I was showing my body, but then they made me do it again. It’s very embarrassing.” The director adds, “He is shy to a point that he just doesn’t want to open a button of his shirt. And having a body like that, you have to actually tear it and show the world. We had to coax him into it to do that bare body shot.”
