Sush also admitted that she was no longer upset with her newcomer co-star in the film, Anuj Sawhney, who infuriated her by bragging about their reportedly intimate kissing scene, and how there had to be 36 retakes.
The film, Chingari, a story of how a prostitute fights back to avenge her humiliation and exploitation, was shot in the rural region of Satara in Maharashtra and is scheduled to be released this month.
It is directed by art house filmmaker Kalpana Lajmi. “(My character) is a woman I admire and like me, I would like everyone to take a part of her home with them,” Sushmita was quoted as saying.
