The
festival
season's
most
anticipated
release
Kidnap
sees
two
of
the
lead
actors
caught
in
an
unusual
situation.
Typically,
Bollywood
heroes
and
heroines
are
caught
singing
romantic
duets.
But
Kidnap
essentially
traces
the
complex
relation
between
a
kidnaper
and
his
victim,
leaving
little
scope
for
a
budding
romance
in
the
initial
reels
of
the
film.
What
made
this
situation
more
difficult
to
enact
was
the
fact
that
Imran
Khan
and
Minissha
Lamba
got
along
like
a
house
on
fire
from
the
first
day
of
the
shoot!
At
times,
the
director
Sanjay
Gadhvi
would
have
to
intervene
and
keep
the
actors
away
from
each
other
for
an
entire
day
especially
if
they
needed
to
shoot
an
angry
scene.
On
one
such
day,
Imran
insisted
on
practising
a
knife
stunt
with
Minissha
before
the
actual
shoot.
The
sport
that
Ms.
Lamba
is
known
to
be,
she
readily
relented
and
even
suffered
cuts
on
her
fingers
while
rehearsing.
But
that
didn't
stop
them
from
giving
a
bone–chilling
take
in
the
end.
Of
course,
Minissha
still
chides
Imran
about
her
injury
by
saying
that
he
hurt
her
only
to
avenge
his
loss
in
a
card
game
they
played
on
the
sets!
Being
released
worldwide
by
Indian
Films
-
Studio
18,
Kidnap
will
be
out
in
cinemas
on
October
2.
