Bollywood actor Emraan Hashmi earned the title of ‘serial kisser’ early in his career as he was one of the first in his generation of actors to shed inhibitions when it came to locking lips on the big screen. While he proudly carried the title, over the past few years, he refrained from doing such scenes. Now, he is all set to share a steamy kiss with actress Mouni Roy in his upcoming web series Showtime. Set to stream on Disney+ Hotstar from March 8, the show will see him portray the character of a producer, Raghu Khanna.
A fan page dedicated to the 44-year-old actor recently shared a clip from the series, were Emraan’s Raghu Khanna shares a passionate lip-lock with Mouni’s character Yasmin Ali, an actress. In the short clip, she is seen telling the actor that he is only concerned about the number and not entertainment. She tells him, “What happened to Agent Haseena? The world needs to know that I am doing something like 'Kill Bill'. Yasmin Ali in and as Agent Haseena.” Assuring her that she is irreplaceable, Raghu tells her, “We will announce it soon. Now give me that kiss.”
The steamy kiss has taken the internet by storm as they had missed the ‘Murder’ actor shedding inhibitions in his projects. The glimpses of the upcoming show has certainly left the netizens excited to know more about the workings of the entertainment industry.
Talking about her role in the film, the Brahmastra Part 1 actress said, “I truly believe that work begets work. The kind of work that you've done will get you the next few offers and you can choose the best possible one from that. "There is always more dimensions to a person and talent has no bounds. So just because somebody can dance that doesn't mean that they can't act or when somebody looks glamorous, it's only because of styling or hair and make-up.” She went on to conclude by stating that it takes a lot of work for someone to get different types of roles and not be typecasted.
Showtime also stars Makwana, Rajeev Khandelwal, Shriya Saran, Vishal Vashishtha, Neeraj Madhav, Vijay Raaz, and Naseeruddin Shah among many others in pivotal roles.
