Sonarika Bhadoria aka Abhilasha felt uncomfortable getting intimate

With daily soaps becoming more realistic day by day, the depiction of love has also become bold. In the past, Rang Badalti Odhani boasted of some intimate scenes and in the current lot, Star Plus’ Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hai and Tum Dena Saath Mera on Life OK are following suit. But not all actors are comfortable in getting close with their co star. Sonarika Bhadoria, who essays the role of Abhilasha in Magic Lanterns’ newly launched show, Tum Dena Saath Mera, initially felt uncomfortable doing romantic scenes. “While shooting the intimate scenes, I was way too shy and felt awkward; it was not very easy because the entire crew was present there. But I feel that it's like any other emotion and an actor has to portray it," Sonarika tells Tellychakkar.com. Incidentally, the daily depicts the love story of a newly-wed young couple Abhilasha-Manan has many lovey-dovey scenes. And for a newcomer who is facing camera for first time doing such roles is not easy. “Initially, The only thing that is on my mind was the eight to nine o’ clock was the most crucial time for me as we used to pack-up at nine and my father use to regularly pick me up from the sets so I use to get jitters thinking that he would be watching me doing such scenes.” But over time, Sonarika has calmed down. “Now I feel if my mom who is present on the sets with me is watching me through a monitor and so is my dad, why should I be afraid. After all, they have full faith in me and that is the reason I am working,” says the actress. The beautiful actress also asserts that it was not easy for their director Vivek Budakoti, to bring the cute and romantic moments as Ankit Narang (Manan) and she shared cold vibes. “Ankit is one such guy who loves pulling everyone’s legs right from a spot boy, to my mom to our director. He likes to play prank and that is the reason I kept fighting with him.” But the situation was well handled by the director. “He explained to us that in order to bring out onscreen chemistry between us, we will have to stop fighting. And, luckily from that day Ankit understood and he limited his pranks,” reveals Sonarika. Whatever the case may be, the audiences love watching Abhilasha and Manan’s together.
