Neetu Chandra's interview on her role in controversial bathing scene in Jagmohan Mundhras’s “The Apartment.”

Neetu Chandra in The Apartment bathing scene

Your first reaction on learning about the bathing scene?

When Jagmohan was narrating the script to me he had said the bathing scene might be an option but if I decided to  shoot it, he would  present it aesthetically and allow me to call the shots. He added that if I didn't like the scene or had a problem with the way it looked afterward, it was my call to have it edited out.

Did you ensure that least number of people were present when you shot the scene?

Yes. The only people present were Jag sir, cameraman Uday Tiwari, my assistant and the EP Krishna Banerjee.

Were you awkward or uncomfortable?

I went about it very professionally. Initially, I was nervous but later, after seeing the scene and the way it was shot, I am confident it will go down well. They also showed me Tanushree's shower scene with Rohit in her lavish apartment and then there is my bathing scene in a run-down broken bathroom. I am sure there will be comparisons.

Have you seen Smita Patil's Chakra bathing scene? Might be comparisons to that too.

I knew that Smita Patil had done a similar bathing scene in Chakra. I have been compared to Smitaji since Traffic Signal but it's not fair to be compared to anyone. She was a legend. We all look up to her. If I can be even one per cent of what she was, my life is set.

Were you really bare, as it seems in the photograph?

Well it shows that I am nude but I don't want to comment beyond that. It can be a trick of the camera too. Do you think any actress would pose for a scene like this without wearing anything?

Does your family know about your nude scene?

My family knows me very well and they also know that I am only answerable to my work and nobody else. I take my own decisions.

What's The Apartment about?

It's a contemporary thriller set in an apartment where two people live. I play a girl from a small town who loses her mind when she come to the big city and tries to settle down.

Neetu Chandra: My shower scene in 'Apartment' is not boorish

Neetu Chandra

Recently in an interview, model-turned-Bollywood-actress Neetu Chandra said that the scene where she has been shown taking a shower in her forthcoming flick ‘Apartment’ is neither boorish nor crude.

The actress said, "There is no vulgarity or cheapness in the shower scene.”

Neetu also clarified that, contrary to reports circulating in the industry, she has not shed her clothes for shooting the scene.

“The shot gives an illusion that I am not wearing anything but it is a trick of the camera. It's an illusion that the filmmakers have created because I wasn't comfortable shooting otherwise," said the actress.

‘Apartment’ is scheduled to be released on April 23 and also features actress Tanushree Dutta.

Neetu does not want to be labeled ‘bold’

During the interview Neetu also made it quite clear that just because she did a bathing scene in the film ‘Apartment’ does not mean she should be labeled ‘bold.’

"I play a hostel girl in the movie and in that particular scene I am just thinking about something while bathing. Now this is something so many of us do and can connect with. Besides, you can't wear a lehenga in the bathroom," said Neetu.

She further added, “I have not done any bold role. In 'Traffic Signal', I played a simple girl, in 'One Two Three' I played a police officer and was covered in uniform throughout."

Neetu’s Bollywood journey so far

Neetu Chandra was born on June 20, 1984 in Patna, Bihar (India) and she made her debut in the Bollywood with ‘Garam Masala’ in 2005 in which she portrayed the role of an airhostess named Sweety.

After that she did Madhur Bhandarkar’s ‘Traffic Signal’. To prepare for her role in the film, she reportedly spent a whole week living on the streets of Mumbai.

She also tried her luck in the Tamil film industry and her film ‘Yavarum Nalam’ opposite Madhavan that released his year has been declared a major hit.
