I Love You, Now (Don't ) Kiss Me
Until the late 1980s, India's Film Censor Board enforced a strict ban on kissing in film. So many of the popular films of the day were love stories, so filmmakers had to find clever ways around the ban. Most often, audiences were treated to seeing the hero and heroine melt together, their lips moving within a millimeter of each other before the heroine would turn coyly away or the hero would simply pull his lady into a romantic embrace. Sometimes the pair ducked behind a tree or door and audiences were left to imagine what was going on behind. Today, kissing scenes are much more common in Hindi films, although many actresses still refuse to kiss their leading men on screen!
