EKTA ADDS A NUDITY CLAUSE' TO CONTRACTS
By Sanyukta Iyer, Mumbai Mirror | Apr 8, 2015
The Central Board of Film Certification's snipping scissors may have scared away several filmmakers but Ekta Kapoor is going ahead with an erotica titled XXX.
Starring all new faces, it is a compilation of five different stories, each one exploring a different aspect of sexuality. And to ensure that none of the debutants can later demur about shooting explicit, sex-charged scenes or mouthing titillating lines, the producer has inserted what is being referred to as the 'nudity clause' in their contract.
Confirming this, director Ken Ghosh told Mirror, "We have already had lots of discussions on how things would be shot and we do not want any problems during the filming. So we decided it was best to put in on paper as a techno-legal clause."
Reportedly, adult star, Sunny Leone had refused to perform a few sequences for Ragini MMS, produced under Ekta's banner. And keeping that in mind, this time she's taken steps to ensure that there will be no last-minute tears and tantrums.
"We are pushing the envelope with this film. Erotica as a genre has been passed off under the guise of thrillers, murder mysteries and horror films for years. This time it's a straight and in-your-face genre. So, we have to be a little cautious," he reasons. Ask him if they are looking at full-frontal nudity and Ken retorts, "We are keeping all our options open."
This 'nudity clause' will not be restricted to XXX alone. Any actor who signs up with Ekta will have to toe this line.
