She also talked about how she had a no-kiss policy in her contract and how she broke it in Lust Stories 2. "This is a really touchy subject.

The kind of cinema I have acted in had no intimate scenes like they have now. But, I feel it's regressive to not express lust. It is a basic human need," the Baahubali actress said.
