Mumbai, May 05: Imran Khan had to ‘suffer’ the brunt of his director Punit Malhotra’s ‘creative instincts’ while shooting for I Hate Luv Storys in Goa. The team was filming a club song on the beaches of Goa with a bunch of good-looking guys and girls.
Punit wanted the girls to be all flirty with Imran, who is supposed to be tipsy in the song. The actor wasn’t pleased with this suggestion and asked the director to mellow down the steps.
Unconvinced
The song features Imran, Bruna Abdullah, Sonam Kapoor and Sammir Dattani. Shot on the beach, all the actors were required the actors to let their hair down and have a good time. When Punit instructed Imran to hold the girls close and get flirty, he objected. Even choreographer Bosco tried to convince the actor that it went with the flavour of the song but the actor wasn’t convinced.
A source from the sets adds, “Punit got Imran drunk during the shoot as his character is required to be in good spirits. He made a really stiff drink for him and by the end of the shoot, Imran was slurring.”
