Mumbai: Filmmaker Karan Johar had once revealed on his spicy talk show ‘Koffee With Karan’ that Kriti Sanon turned down ‘Lust Stories’ because her mother didn’t want her to do sensual scenes.
But what left tongues wagging was the way in which Karan teased the actress for rejecting his film.
In the viral video clip, which has resurfaced on Redditt, Karan is heard telling Kriti, “Your mom has, prior to this, also stopped you from having an orgasm.”
Kriti gasped and replied, “Can you please explain? It doesn’t sound good… He offered me Lust Stories… My god, that sentence was horrible.”
After Kriti turned down the role, Karan roped in Kiara Advani.
‘Lust Stories’ became a hit and Kiara was lauded for her performance in the film.
In another episode of his talk show, Karan told Kiara, “I had offered it to Kriti Sanon, and she said that her mom didn’t allow her. So, I thought now everybody’s moms would stand in a line, not allowing their daughters. I’m like, ‘It’s actually a very empowering story.’ It’s about a woman’s right to pleasure.”
“I met Kiara at Manish Malhotra’s house. I knew her, of course. I knew her as Alia Advani. In fact, her name was fed as Alia Advani on my phone till very recently. I asked her, ‘Can you come tomorrow and meet me? It’s for a short film.’ She came and heard it, but I think she was a little zoned out,” he added, while sharing how Kiara bagged the role.
