Nagarjuna slapped Isha multiple times

Nagarjuna slapped Isha multiple times. Nagarjuna entertained with his film Chandralekha which starred Ramya Krishnan and Isha Koppikar in the lead roles under the direction of Krishna Vamsi.

Isha Koppikar speaking to scribes, revealed how Nagarjuna slapped her more than 14 times in a scene. She said , "I got slapped by Nagarjuna. I was a fully committed actor that I want to perform in a real, method way. So when he was slapping me, I couldn’t feel it. This was my second film, so I told him, ‘Nag, you really slap me.’ He said, ‘Are you sure? No, I can’t.’ I said, ‘I want that feeling. I am not feeling it right now.’ So he slapped me, but softly.”

She continued “In an attempt to look angry, I got slapped 14 times. At the end, I literally had slap marks on my face. Bechara mujhe leke baitha, bola sorry (Poor guy, he apologised to me). I said, ‘I asked for it, why are you saying sorry?’”

Isha made her Tollywood debut with Chandralekha which is the remake of Malayalam film with the same name which featured Mohan Lal, Sukanya and Pooja Batra under the direction of Priyadarshan.
