Bipasha gets close to Saif

The promos of Taurani's Race have created quite a buzz in the industry. But besides the slick and international feel of Race, directed by the master of the thriller genre Abbas-Mustan, the industry is abuzz about Bipasha Basu's hot scenes with Saif Ali Khan.

According to insiders Bipasha and Saif have shot a steamy song and a passionate scene in the film and both shared a comfort level and had no awkward moments during the shooting.

Says Bipasha, 'Right now in Bollywood, we cant feel awkward about doing any scene during shooting as we are informed well in advance about the story and screenplay. I am quite comfortable shooting for sizzling scenes as long as I know what I am supposed to do and am not uncomfortable about the idea.

But yes, even if remotely I would sense any discomfort I will not do it.

She adds, 'But then it's not only me, the whole film is sizzling, All the characters have a lot of intimate scenes and not just me and Saif.'

She also adds, 'Race is a very sexy, slick and like an international thriller; the plot has a certain levels of intimacy.'

Ramesh Taurani, Producer Tips films confirms that there are very hot and steamy scenes between Bipasha and Saif in Race.

Says Mr. Taurani 'Race has got a very International feel to it. It's been shot in exotic locales of Durban. There are intimate scenes between the other characters in the film but Saif and Bipasha are the hottest. But there is no kissing scene in the film and both Bipasha and Saif are very professional. And hence there were no awkward moments since both were comfortable with the scenes during the shooting.'
