Prince is not British actress Aruna Shields' first film. She has already featured in Jagmohan Mundhra's English film, Private Moments, which sees her in steamy sex scenes.
In Prince, Arunau00a0 is one of the three actresses pitched against Vivek Oberoi, with whom she shares a hot kiss on screen.
It was different
Says a source, "When she was approached for the role, Aruna forgot to tell producer Kumar Taurani and
director Kookie Gulatiu00a0 about her explicit scenes inu00a0 Private Moments. Now she maintains that director Jagmohan Mundhra had narrated a different script, which didn'tu00a0 have so much nudity."Standard excuse
Mundhra says, "That's the excuse all actresses give when they want to enter films. I had sent the script through Aruna's agent. Out of the 40 girls who had come to the auditions, out of the top three shortlisted, Aruna was the only one who was completely comfortable with the amount of nudity required in the film. She co-operated throughoutu00a0 and not once raised an issue about the lovemaking scenes.
Mundhra adds that he was the one who gave Aruna's number to Kumar Taurani. "She called me and told me about Prince. I convinced her to do it as it's a big film and opposite Vivek Oberoi. I wish her well."
Looking for attitude
Kumar Taurani says, "We were looking for an girl who looked Indian but had international attitude. Someone who could handle bike chases, stunts etc and look glamorous. Aruna fit the bill. I'm happy with the way her role in Prince has turned out."
Aruna says, "Private... is a comedy revolving around the sex lives of four women. It's a chick flick that is referred to, in the UK, as London's version of Sex and the City. Doing steamy scenes is not a big issue over here. It still takes courage though and you can't be self-conscious. It's part of being an actor."
