Nothing erotic about filming erotica: Pooja Bhatt

Filmmaker Pooja Bhatt, who is busy directing Indo-Canadian porn star Sunny Leone for "Jism 2" in Sri Lanka,  says it is hardly exciting to shoot steamy scenes.

"Shooting a love scene for 'Jism 2'. Nothing erotic about filming erotica. It's as mundane or fascinating as watching paint dry. Take your pick," tweeted the actress-turned-filmmaker.

"Jism 2", a sequel to 2003 film "Jism", was first shot in Delhi and Mumbai. The cast and crew are in Sri Lanka to can the last lap of shooting. The triangular love story also features Randeep Hooda and Arunoday Singh.

Sonal takes swimming lessons for '3G'

Actress Sonal Chauhan was a hydrophobic as a child, but she has overcome her fear of water by learning how to swim for her next film "3G", currently being shot in Fiji.

As part of her preparation for her character, Sonal has completed her swimming training and is all set to take on scuba diving as well. Being a non-swimmer, she underwent a strict training routine.

"What's ironic is the fact that Sonal was hydrophobic ever since she was a child and would avoid stepping into the water. She didn't want a stunt double to do any of her scenes and thus decided to take her fear head on," said a source.

"She started the initial bit of training with a world-renowned scuba training instructor and will be completing the remainder of her training in Fiji. She's totally committed to making this work for her and her character," the source added.

"3G" also stars Neil Nitin Mukesh.

Arjun clueless about next project

He is getting rave reviews for his debut film "Ishaqzaade", but Arjun Kapoor says he doesn't know yet what's next on his platter.

"Nothing has been finalised yet. I have met Shimit Amin socially. If anything comes up they (YRF) will make an official announcement," said Arjun who is under contract with Yash Raj Films (YRF).

In "Ishaqzaade", Arjun paired opposite Parineeti Chopra, who was launched with YRF's "Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl" last year.

According to rumours, the duo have signed other films together too. But Arjun tells a different story.

"We have not signed anything after 'Ishaqzaade'. All are rumours. We are not doing Pradeep Sarkar's film. We both are under contract (with YRF), so we are working with this company. Now what they have finalised, I d'n't know," he added.
