'There is no point in saying that I want clothes in that scene'; Darshana opens up about intimate scene from her film

Darshana Rajendran is an actress who became popular among the Malayali audience through very few films. The actress, who has acted in around 20 films, is known for her performances in films such as 'Hridhayam', 'Jaya Jaya Jaya Jaya Hey', 'Thuramukham', 'Purushapretham' and 'See You Soon'. She has also acted in Tamil films such as 'Irumbu Thirai' and 'Kavan'.

Darshana's latest film is 'Paradise', in which she acted alongside Roshan Mathew. The film is directed by Sri Lankan director Prasanna Vithanage. In a recent interview, she shared her experience of working with Roshan Mathew in the segment named 'Rani' from the anthology film 'Aanum Pennum'. 'Rani' is based on the short story named 'Pennum Cherukkanum' written by Unni R. Talking about the intimate scene which featured her and Roshan, Darshana said that she took the same preparations for that scene as she did for the other scenes in the movie.

"I first did an intimate scene for the film 'Aanum Pennum'. Nobody had told me how we were going to shoot that scene. Aashiqettan (director Aashiq Abu) only told me to read the short story. I really liked the story and wanted to do it. I did not ask any other questions. I had great faith in Aashiqettan, Shaijukka (cinematographer Shyju Khalid) and my co-actor Roshan.

"That intimate scene was shot the same way we shot the scene where Roshan and I were sitting and talking in college. It is part of human nature. It doesn't need to be seen as a big thing. I only had that character in my mind. The character is going through this particular situation at that time. If the script says that my character is not wearing any clothes in that scene, there is no point in saying that I want clothes," Darshana said.
