The sexiest Bollywood pictures!
This picture was shot for Cineblitz magazine about three years ago. It was the cover picture, which had three folds -- the first fold showed Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai, who were the biggest Bollywood stars then. The second fold had Akshay Kumar, Preity Zinta, Hrithik Roshan and Ajay Devgan. The last fold showed Vivek Oberoi, Saif Ali Khan, Sushmita Sen and Bipasha Basu.
We planned this shot for over 15 days, and allotted each actor his or her space.
But when we started shooting it, one particular actor refused to stand where he was told to. He wanted to change his place.
I told him that if he didn't want to stand there, he wouldn't be in the picture. We actually didn't shoot him, and were ready to walk away. He was very shocked. I explained to him that I wasn't a film photographer, and I would not stand tantrums.

He wasn't paying me, the agency was, so I didn't have to listen to him.
After 15 minutes, he apologised, put his arm around me and finally listened.
