Sushant Singh Rajput, who stars in Dibakar Banerjee’s Detective Byomkesh Bakshy!, recently revealed how he was tricked into doing a kissing scene with co-star Swastika Mukherjee. During a media interaction, he said he was not informed about it until the last minute as the director wanted to get his natural reaction. Worried, Sushant called up girlfriend Ankita Lokhande and made sure that he told her about the liplock himself to avoid any controversy. “I did six more takes and then called Ankita to tell her that she does not need to worry as nothing of that sort has happened,” he was quoted as saying.

Sushant apparently found himself on a sticky wicket two years ago when it was reported that he had nearly 25 kissing scenes with Parineeti Chopra and Vaani Kapoor in Shuddh Desi Romance (2013). There were rumours that Ankita got upset when she learnt about it.
