'Lipstick Under My Burkha' actress Aahana Kumra has posted sizzling hot photos of herself wearing a bikini on her Instagram account
Aahana Kumara made it to the headlines with her outstanding performance in the critically acclaimed film 'Lipstick Under My Burkha'. She played the role of a beautician who struggling to balance out her love for her boyfriend and her fiance, whom she meets through an arranged set-up. Aahana has a fondness for bikinis and the last time she posted bikinis pictures, she was body shamed for it. However, it now looks as if Aahana doesn't really bother about social media trolls and has gone ahead and posted some amazing and stunning bikini photos of herself, as she holidays in Goa.
Aahana Kumra has appeared in the television show 'Yudh' where she played Amitabh Bachchan's daughter. She has also appeared in the Amazon web series 'Inside Edge' a show based on IPL.
Even for an actress who has in the past worked with the likes of Amitabh Bachchan in Yudh, her role in 'Lipstick Under My Burkha', made her nervous. "I was doing sex scenes for the first time. I don't think even my co-star, Vikrant (Massey) had done anything like that before. I remember, during one of our initial scenes, we just sat there for 15 minutes staring at each other, wondering how to get started," she laughs. There was also the time when she had no idea which co-star had left her slightly bruised. "I had a few intense making out scenes with both Vikrant and Vaibhav. And they had all to be filmed in a single day. The next morning I was cribbing about my ordeal when Plabita (co-star) pointed out that my lips had turned blue! And, I had no idea if it was Vikrant or Vaibhav."
Aahana was nervous about her mother seeing the film. "I told her she didn't have to if she didn't want to. I was greatly relieved when she told me she enjoyed it." This is the first time that Aahana was working with a female director, and she describes Alankrita as a hard taskmaster. "She's very inspiring, and she's never easily satisfied with a scene. When you feel you have done your best, she'll keep nudging you for a better take. It was exhausting, but, I guess it all paid off."
