Vinod Khanna's Unforgettable Moment with Madhuri Dixit on Set
Vinod Khanna's Reaction to a Kiss Scene
In today's cinema, kissing scenes are commonplace, but this was not the case years ago. When Madhuri Dixit performed a lip-lock with the legendary actor Vinod Khanna in her second film, it sparked significant controversy. During the filming of this scene, Khanna became so overwhelmed that he accidentally bit Madhuri's lips.
The Film That Created a Stir
Madhuri Dixit began her acting career at the tender age of 16 with the film 'Abodh'. Her second film featured her alongside Vinod Khanna, which brought her considerable challenges. The film in question is 'Dayavan', released in 1988, which created quite a sensation at the box office.
The Incident with the Actress
In 'Dayavan', Madhuri portrayed the role of Vinod Khanna's wife, and the film included several intimate scenes, including a lengthy lip-lock that captivated audiences. However, few are aware that during the filming of this scene, Khanna lost control and ended up biting Madhuri's lips.
Controversy Surrounding the Kiss Scene
Interestingly, Madhuri was paid a hefty sum of 1 crore rupees for her role in this film. It is said that the director, Feroz Khan, anticipated that the kiss scene would stir up controversy, which is why Madhuri was offered such a high fee to minimize any potential issues. Upon its release, the film became a blockbuster, but the kiss scene between Madhuri and Vinod Khanna led to significant backlash. Reports suggest that after the controversy escalated, Feroz Khan received notices to cut the scene, but he chose to keep it intact.
