While Lust Story 2 promises to be a tale of passion, the recent promo video of the anthology will leave you in splits. Titled ‘Cast Story’ the promotional video shows the lead stars being given the script and their reaction to the same.

While Kajol asked for a ‘sarson ka khet’ ala Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge, she also wanted her character to be named ‘Anjali’. She also advised the makers to name her short ‘Kabhi Pyaar Kabhi Lust’. On the other hand, Neena Gupta is first shocked that she’s getting to play the grandmother and then reluctantly shared that grannies too can have lust. Mrunal Thakur, who usually dies in most of her films, was relieved to know she won’t have a death sequence. Recently, she had spoken about getting her scripts approved by her younger brother. However, in this video, she asked if she could call her ‘didi’ to discuss the story with.

 

The cutest parts, however, are the newest pair in tinseltown – Tamannaah Bhatia and Vijay Varma. At the start of the video, Tamannaah looked worried as there was a scene involving ‘more than kissing’ in the film. She suggests that instead, they could go for a handshake or a hug. Vijay, on his part, asked if Vicky Kaushal was busy that he was approached to play the part. He gloated over the fact that he is the face of ‘lust’ after playing some really negative characters. Tamannaah asked about her co-star and loudly exclaimed ‘Devarakonda’ when they mentioned ‘Vijay’. As they both are told about being cast opposite each other, they blushingly say yes to the project.

As readers would know, Tamannaah confirmed her relationship with Vijay Varma. In a recent interview with Film Companion, Tamannaah said Vijay is “a person who I care about deeply and he’s my happy place.” She also admitted that sparks flew on the sets of Lust Stories 2.

Tillotama Shome and Amruta Shubhash, who are cast together also had some quirky responses to the film. While Tillotama wanted to play the lead in all the shorts, Amruta couldn’t stop crying after reading the script. Tilottama offered to play Vijay’s part and after the request is denied, she even made a face asking why can’t she play a man. On the other hand, Angad Bedi was also shown excited and breaking into bhangra after being offered the film.

One of each short of Lust Story 2 has been directed by Amit Ravindernath Sharma, R. Balki, Konkona Sen Sharma to Sujoy Ghosh. It will drop on Netflix on June 29.
