Tridev actor Sonam was given a chocolate after she refused to do a nude scene: ‘I was very uncomfortable’

Sonam then recalled an incident when she stopped the shoot of Pahlaj Nihalani’s Mitti Aur Sona because she was uncomfortable with a scene where she was allegedly bare. “I didn’t want to argue. Yes, I was very uncomfortable in that scene.” In the film she portrayed the role of a college girl who moonlights as a prostitute in the night. 

The actor said, “I was explained and given a chocolate- and then I was fine. My aunt came ahead, Pahlaj stepped in- but soon everything was fine.”

The actor also recalled that Yash Chopra once told her not to get married because she had a promising career in Bollywood. Sonam said that she lost YRF’s Aaina and Feroz Khan’s Yaalgar because she got married. “I had signed 30 movies in the shortest span of time. But I got married very soon and had to complete many of them very fast,” she said. Sonam married director Rajiv Rai when she was was only seventeen-and-half years. The couple then separated in 2016.
