The stars had to play vodka chess, a version of chess whereby after the defeat of a pawn, the player has to consume a vodka shot, for a scene in the upcoming film.

Confirming the news, a spokesperson of the film said: "A scene in the film requires both the actors to play this game. It's a slightly different version of chess which is very interesting".
