Kissing justified

The ‘Student of the Year’ actress Alia Bhatt has justified her kissing scene in ‘2 States’. “This film (2 States) starts where most rom-coms end, it starts with the couple already being in relationship and wanting to get married. So to justify the fact that they are together for a while… There is intimacy between them. They are modern, forward thinking and at the same time very cultured and cater to conservative family. You see it (kissing) for three seconds in the trailer and that is how it is in the film,” Alia said.

“There is awkwardness. I feel it is acting at the end of the day… He is playing Krish and I am playing Anaya we are not Arjun and Alia when we are doing that scene. This film is not about just that one kiss, the only reason it is written about is because Arjun and I said it is ok (to have it),” she said.

“People don`t look down upon it any more if done tastefully then the audience will be put off. It is a U/A film, it is a family film and we want family to come and enjoy the film,” she said.
