The 39-year-old actress had her first screen kiss with actor Hrithik Roshan in Dhoom 2 in 2006, but admits she is still less than comfortable with the prospect of such intimate scenes.
In a new interview with Sir David Frost, Rai said that the scene caused such a stir in India that she even received legal threats following the movie's release.
She said: "I did it once prominently in the movie Dhoom and it was so topical, and you'll be surprised, I mean I actually got a couple of notices, legal notices, from some people in the country turning around and saying 'You are iconic, you're an example to our girls, you have led your life in such an exemplary manner, they're not comfortable with you doing this on screen so why did you?'"
"And I was like wow, I'm just an actor, doing my job, and here I am being asked to offer an explanation for a couple of seconds in a two, three hour piece of cinema."
Declined films
But Rai also said that she had many doubts about signing up to appear in Dhoom 2 simply because of the kissing scene
