Actor Improvised Scene to Hug Her

While recalling the incident, Shama shared, “Hugging was never a part of the original shoot. However, I sensed that for some reason, the actor wanted to hug me.

Shama Sikander made it clear that this was the first time she met this actor, and she has decided never to work with him again. She also emphasized that while incidents like this are unfortunately common in the industry, they should not be accepted as normal.
