The consummation of Jodha (Paridhi Sharma) and Akbar (Rajat Tokas) on TV show Jodha Akbar takes place a year after they wed on the show. And by all accounts, Paridhi proved to be a reluctant bride. And while uncomfortable shooting intimate scenes, she outright refused to do a lip-lock, saying her family wouldn't be okay with it.
Says a source, "By now, everybody knows that Paridhi and Rajat can't see eye to eye. They throw their weight around whenever they have to shoot intimate scenes. Paridhi was a little uncomfortable but the director got her to do it all. She wasn't ready for it. She even expressed reservation about doing a 'kissing-away-tears' scene some time back. This time around when she told the production team that her family wouldn't be okay with it, the producer told her that she had mentioned no such reservations while signing on the show."

And the lip-lock in question? "We had to drop it since Paridhi disagreed to do it citing family issues," says our source.
Paridhi concludes, "The scene has been shot beautifully. They used my body double wherever I was uncomfortable. Rajat too was cooperative." Ask her about the lip-lock and she replies, "I am not comfortable shooting a normal kiss, so a smooch is out of question. I refused and it was cancelled."
