Soha did it 25 times, to get it right. With Abhishek Bachchan. No, we are not talking about any kiss scenes. Soha had to rehearse slapping Abhishek that many times to get it right for a shot. Soha's as gentle as she looks, and was very anxious when it came to the scene in Antarmahal.

She admits never to have slapped anybody and hence didn't know how to go about it. She got so worried that she had to confide in the director, Rituparno Ghosh. Immediately, Abhishek was ordered to come and practise getting slapped by her.

Even then, her embarrassment made her keep missing his cheek till Abhishek, the joker around, volunteered to draw a bull's-eye on his face so that she could hit on target. And after 25 rounds of slapping she felt comfortable. Now you know acting in a film isn't just about turning the cheek for a smack!
