New Delhi: Paoli Dam didn't have any inhibitions doing bold scenes in 'Hate Story', says director Vivek Agnihotri, who is launching the Bengali actress in Bollywood with the film.
A well known name in Bengali cinema, Paoli walked the red carpet at the Cannes film festival earlier this year for the premier of her film 'Chatrak' (Mushrooms). The film courted controversy because of her full frontal nude scene.
"For 'Hate Story', I was hunting a young woman who could meet two basic criteria - she should be an accomplished actress and she needed to be uninhibited about her sexual energy.
"It was during this hunt when I came across Paoli's name. When I read out the script to her she immediately agreed to the bold scenes that are an integral part of the film," Agnihotri told PTI.
'Hate Story' is being written and produced by filmmaker Vikram Bhatt, who is known for his films like 'Jism', 'Murder' and 'Kasoor'.
Agnihotri insists that Paoli fits in well with the erotic genre that he is exploring with the film.
"This is a genre which is unexplored in Bollywood. We have made films like 'Jism' and 'Murder' before but 'Hate Story' is going to take a different dimension all the way.
"Not only would it be much more uninhibited than it's other Bollywood counterparts, it will also end up raising quite a few eyebrows," he added.
