MUMBAI: Bollywood actress Sonakshi Sinha has quelled all rumors of a lip lock with Imran Khan in her next film ‘Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai Again’ and sealed it … with a kiss!

Reports of a kissing scene between her and her co-star Imran for the sequel to Ekta Kapoor’s ‘Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai’ have been doing the rounds lately. The reports suggested that since Imran Khan was stepping into Emraan Hashmi’s role for ‘Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai Again’, there would most definitely be a kiss as a salute to the ‘serial kisser’.

The ‘source’ of these rumours said, “The makers of the sequel thought it was important to include such a scene, to match up to the steamy scenes of the Emraan Hashmi starrer. So,the original script of the sequel had a sensuous scene between Imran and Sonakshi. Milan had a few rounds of discussions with the actors. Although, Imran was game, Sonakshi needed some convincing.”

But, the ‘Dabangg’ girl who has repeatedly said a big, fat ‘No’ to any kind of skin show, bikinis or bold scenes on screen rubbished all the rumours on Twitter. Sonakshi wrote, “Read some articles that say I’m going to be kissing on screen. Sorry yaar… Not true. But here – MWAH – for all the space that was wasted with those articles.”

‘Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai 2’, produced by Balaji Motion Pictures, stars Akshay Kumar, Sonakshi Sinha, Imran Khan and Sonali Bendre in the lead roles. The film is scheduled for an Eid release, August 8, 2013.
