Are you sure though?
12 years back, I must be a toddler then! Anyway thanks for apprising me Kal El! π
No problem and yes, I am referring to a liplock.
Tara had a liplock and I believe so did
Kurukshetra. There were kissing scenes in
Banegi Apni Baat as well though I don't remember to what degree they went. As for the intensity of the love scenes, true they were "tame" compared to what happens in Bollywood TODAY but compared to TODAY's television they were quite bold.
Hasratein had become quite controversial for its bold scenes. It wasn't all "under the blanket". Well sort of. The thing is, when you are thinking "intense" you are thinking about what happens today in the movie industry whereas I am simply comparing today's tv to what was back then. Plus "intense" is the term that was (and still often is) used to refer to
Hasratein's scenes. Think about it for what it was for it's day and then compare to what happens today on the small screen. π
You know,
Banegi Apni Baat was about college kids and it had them kissing all over the place. π
There were other serials that went beyond the so-called norm too. Too long ago, can't remember right now. The funny part is that TV today has gone 20 years backward compared to the early to mid 90s television. π I don't see what all the fuss is about though: it is very much possible to show a liplock on screen without making it sleazy or anything like that. π
