Hard
to
believe,
but
Zayed
Khan
kisses
for
the
first
time
on
screen
in
Subhash
Ghai's
Yuvvraaj.
And
the
lip-locking
girl
is
Aimee
(Amrit)
Maghera.
Shivers
Zayed,
"Firstly
I've
never
done
intimate
scenes
like
these
on
screen.
I'm
a
family
man
with
a
wife
and
son.
And
to
watch
the
scenes
with
my
parents
at
the
premiere
gave
me
the
shivers.
What
would
they
think?
On
top
of
it
all
it
was
our
marriage
anniversary.
What
a
gift
for
my
wife!"
Fortunately,
Zayed's
wife
Malaika
was
quite
'cool'
about
her
husband's
dedication
to
the
craft.
So
Zayed
could
exhale.
It
took
all
of
the
Showman's
persuasive
powers
to
convince
the
young
Khan
(belonging
to
an
extended
family
of
reputed
ladies'
men)
that
a
lip-to-lip
is
very
much
the
order
of
the
day...or
shall
we
say,
the
odour
of
the
Friday,
going
by
the
legion
of
lip
locks
we've
lately
witnessed
in
our
films.
Says
the
source,
"It
isn't
just
a
kiss
in
Yuvvraaj.
It
was
a
huge
smooching
spree
between
Zayed
and
his
co-star
Aimee
(Amrit)
Maghera.
Zayed
really
had
to
go
for
the
kill.
And
he
was
reluctant
and
unwilling.
Zayed
protested
hard.
He
argued
he's
a
married
man
with
a
son.
And
his
wife
would
certainly
not
like
seeing
him
in
a
compromising
position
with
his
co-star
even
if
it
was
for
the
screen.
But
Subhash
Ghai
was
adamant.
The
Showman
has
never
had
a
kissing
scene
in
his
cinema
before.
He
wanted
to
start
good
and
proper.
He
insisted
Zayed
do
the
needful."
When
probed
about
the
screen
scorchers,
Zayed
acts
ultra-cool.
"My
lips
are
sealed,
and
not
just
for
the
kissing-let
me
tell
you
very
explicitly.
But
yes,
some
of
the
scenes
did
have
me
worried.
This
was
my
first
screen
kiss.
And
I
do
have
a
very
laadla
beta
image
among
the
audience.
What
would
the
mothers
in
the
audience
think?
I
wondered!
I
hadn't
even
told
my
wife
about
the
kissing
in
Yuvvraaj.
I
wanted
to
surprise
her
on
the
premiere
night."
