New Delhi: The character of Kukoo played by actress Kubra Sait in Anurag Kashyap and Vikramaditya Motwane’s Sacred Games season 1, brought her immense fame and recognition. Sait played a transgender woman in the series with whom Ganesh Gaitonde (Nawazuddin Siddiqui) is in love with.
In her recent interview with Mashable India, the actor has opened up about the several intimate scenes she had filmed with Siddiqui for the Netflix series, in a recent interview. Sait revealed that while filming a sex scene with Nawaz for the seventh time, she started crying on the floor of the sets. She further told that Nawaz asked her to go and cry outside as his role was left to be filmed.
Talking to Mashable India she said, “The seventh time, when I did it… I was broke. I was genuinely broke at that point. I was highly emotional also. Anurag Kashyap walked up to me and he said, ‘Thank you. I’ll see you outside?’ That’s when it hit me that the scene was over’.”
“I stayed on the floor, weeping. I was just crying and crying and crying. Then Nawaz said, ‘I think aapko bahar jaana chahiye kyunki mera scene abhi bacha hai‘ (you should go outside because my scene is still left),” she added.
Earlier, in an interview with Times Now, she had made shocking revelations saying, “After I went to the audition, they told me there’s frontal nudity scene and when you see the show, you can see how beautifully it has been shot; how vulnerable it is. You can never go wrong when you have a great team to work with”.
“He (Anurag Kashyap) made me do the scene seven times- every time after the scene, he’d come to me and say I am making you do this so many times, sorry haan. Just one more time, ek aur baar, one more and I am going again, don’t hate me, I know you hate me, don’t hate me”, she further added.
Meanwhile, Sacred Games also starred Saif Ali Khan in the lead role. Radhika Apte, Surveen Chawla, Rajshri Deshpande, Jatin Sarna and others played pivotal roles in the series.
