Tele actors suffer from red faces, swollen eyes and bumps on chins after being slapped for the misdeeds of the characters they play
Aka shdeep Saigal
Been slapped on screen? I've been slapped quite a few times. Smriti was the first, followed by a few others on different shows.
Kisne mara? Aur kyun? In Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Smriti slapped me because of what Ansh did to Nandini (Gauri Pradhan). In Kkusum, Manasi Joshi slapped me as she got to know that Trishul was plotting against her family. In Time Bomb, Vallabh Vyas slapped me, as he didn't want Usman to take over his operations.
Chaanta laga? On scale of 1 to 10? Smriti's slap was the hardest. I would mark her 10/10. In fact, I told her that she's got a heavy hand. Thank God, it was just one slap!
Have you slapped anyone? In Time Bomb, in an attempt to torture Rajeev Khandelwal (Varun Awasthi) I tied him up then slapped and bashed him.๐

Iqbal Khan
Have you been slapped on screen? Yes, twice or thrice so far.
Kisne mara? Aur kyun? In Kaisa Ye Pyar Hai, Dadi (Maya Alagh) slapped me when I reveal my intentions to take revenge on Kripa (Neha Bamb). During the initial days of the soap, Kripa slapped me because I hit her butt, out of fun.๐๐ that was fun๐๐
Chaanta laga? On scale of 1 to 10? Not at all. I always make sure that my cheek doesn't come in close contact as I will have a good reflex action and my co-stars might get a swollen face.
Have you slapped anyone? I haven't slapped any one so far.
Favourite thappad scene. Of course, 'thappad ki gunj' in Karma.

Chaanta laga? On scale of 1 to 10? Rucha's the best slapper and I shall vouch for that. I will give her 9/10.

Chaanta laga? On scale of 1 to 10? Mona Wasu slapped me when I was recuperating from an eye operation and my stitches were fresh. She hit me some 10 odd times before the final take and by then, my eyes turned red. I would rate her slap as 9/10.
