Director Vishal Pandya's Hate Story 3, which featured Sharman Joshi, Karan Singh Grover, Zareen Khan and Daisy Shah in key roles, has completed 5 years of release today. The erotic thriller, which was panned by critics, got a huge thumbs up from the audience resulting into one of the most profitable ventures of that year. On the special occasion, Sharman Joshi shared some anecdotes and revealed that many of his close friends and family members criticised him for his choice.
Talking to E Times, the 3 Idiots actor said, "I wanted to explore a different genre altogether. When I read the script, I knew I would be able to deliver it. A lot of people criticised my choice at that point in time, including my family and close friends. But I had the guts at the time and wanted to do it. I know I could do it. I wanted to show a different aspect of my personality to my audience. It was an erotic thriller. It was labeled as one. It has as much eroticism as you see in a normal romantic film. All said and done, it did well at the box-office. The moment a film works at the box-office, there is not much let to criticise."
Sharing his experience of working with Zareen, he said, "She was absolutely lovely to work with. I am still in touch with her. She has become a friend now. We both were comfortable enacting the scenes that we did. I was trying to be chivalrous as a man. However, I realised that Zareen was very confident about how she wanted to take this ahead. She had no inhibitions as such. She was aware of what she has taken up and she was treating it as a job."
When asked about facing challenges in performing certain scenes, Sharman said, "The film was an erotic thriller and the eroticism that was there in the film, people have already seen me do that in various movies. For example, 'Hello' movie too had romantic and sexual scenes. So 'Hate Story 3' was no different for me. There was no challenge per se but it was something I had not done for a long time."
