Sacred Games’ Rajshri Deshpande Defends Lovemaking Scenes After They Were Posted On Adult Sites
The lovemaking scenes between Rajshri Deshpande and actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui in the Netflix Series Sacred Games were posted on porn sites. The actress talks about it.
Actress
Rajshri
Deshpande,
who
is
seen
playing
wife
to
gangster
Ganesh
Gaitonde
in
Netflix's
first
original
Indian
series
Sacred
Games,
was
subjected
to
criticisms
for
the
lovemaking
scenes.
The
actress
is
seen
in
multiple
intimate
scenes
with
co-star
Nawazuddin
Siddiqui
and
has
displayed
her
bare
front
for
the
scenes.
For
being
a
part
of
such
bold
scenes,
he
actress
was
called
a
p*rnstar
and
her
bare
frontal
scenes
were
posted
on
adult
websites.
In
an
interview
to
Hindustan
Times,
Rajshri
spoke
about
the
bold
lovemaking
scene
and
said
that
"It
was
a
tender
moment
between
a
husband
and
wife,".
She
further
added,
"Sex
is
a
beautiful
thing...
coming
close
is
a
beautiful
thing.
It
is
unfortunate
that
people
are
talking
about
it
this
way.
They
(the
audiences)
are
immature
and
don't
understand
the
relevance
of
these
(sex)
scenes.
I
am
not
dancing
on
something
which
is
derogatory.
I
am
making
love
to
my
husband
and
that
too
not
in
a
crass
way,".
When
asked
if
being
criticised
for
her
art
affected
her,
she
said,"I
did
feel
bad
about
it
(criticism),
but
I
have
to
move
on.
I
approached
this
scene
as
Subhadra's
character.
As
an
artist,
I
have
to
do
my
job.
I
know
my
intention
was
not
wrong.
The
writers
(Smita
Singh,
Vasant
Nath
and
Varun
Grover)
are
very
good
at
their
job,
they
would
not
write
something
which
is
not
relevant.
It
is
not
like
a
commercial
item
number,
ki
pehle
item
number
becho,
fir
movie
bhechege."
Rajshri
was
previously
featured
in
the
movie
Sexy
Durga,
which
also
had
to
face
a
lot
of
trouble
from
Censor
Board's
end.
Addressing
that
Rajshri
said,
"Imagine
this
happening
to
a
film
which
travelled
to
50
films
festivals
and
won
prestigious
awards.
No
one
knows
that
I
am
Sexy
Durga
and
that
this
is
my
film.
My
parents
live
in
small
town
and
they
will
never
be
able
to
see
my
work
because
my
films
will
not
release
there.
Here
in
cites
also
there
are
no
opening
for
films
like
ours."
Rajshri
Deshpande
has
done
an
amazing
job
in
her
previous
movie
Angry
Indian
Goddesses
too.
She
has
done
minor
roles
in
films
such
as
Talaash
and
Kick.
