In the film 'STRANGERS', presented by SAHARA ONE's Motion Pictures, Sonali Kulkarni has done the unimaginable. Sonali Kulkarni who has always got this girl next door image, has shed her inhibition and has dared to shoot semi nude in bath tub.

Sonali Kulkarni thus joins the gang of bollywood damsels like Mallika Sherawat, Neha Dhupia & Kareena Kapoor's controversial backless shot in their respective films.

According to a sources in the STRANGERS unit, director Anand Rai felt that it was a very emotional scene in a bath tub, and it was essential for the scene to be shot. He had also informed Sonali about the semi nude scene since it was an integral part of the film.

Initially he was a bit apprehensive if Sonali Kulkarni would do the scene but to his surprise, Sonali being very professional and accommodating agreed to expose, since it was a requirement in the script.

However the director ensured that only minimal people required for shooting the film would be present for the particular scene.

Sources add that director Anand Rai incorporated the scene in STRANGERS since it takes the story ahead. There were no intentions to add sleaze since the film is not based on sleaze but is a shocking tale of the protagonist being 'STRANGERS' in their respective marriages.

'STRANGERS' is about the emotional turmoil, mind games and a shockingly devious plot that forms the crux of the emotional thriller. The film stars Jimmy Shergill, Kay Kay Menon, Nandana Sen and Sonali Kulkarni.
