No kisses for Ayesha Takia

We hear there are some rules on the sets of No Smoking?

Producer Kumar Mangat has reportedly gotten strict with the film's crew to keep them from smoking on the sets because the whole purpose of the film is to give an anti-smoking message. The producer has begun fining anyone who is caught smoking on the sets. And the fine is also hefty, Rs 500.

This strict code does not spare even the movie's director Anurag Kashyap who is a regular smoker. Whenever Anurag is caught smoking a cigarette he has to shell out Rs 500. Moreover, lest anyone smoke on the sly, Mangat has reportedly hired a cameraman to photograph those who try to smoke stealthily. Actor Ranvir Shorey too has been fined by the producer.

You refused Nagesh Kukunoor and even Yash Raj films...

I don't believe in shedding clothes and locking lips in today's dare-bare scenario. Therefore, I refused Nagesh Kukunoor's Aashayein which required me to kiss and yes, I even turned down Yashraj's Neal N Nikki sometime back on similar grounds. Under no circumstance will I kiss in a film, no matter how tempting the role is.
