Aamir Khan spills-the-beans on PK nude scene

Aamir told Kapil that Rajkumar Hirani had assured him of a pair of shorts which would be like an abdominal guard with minimum crew members on the set. The actor said, “On the shooting day, I wore those shorts. I came out with the radio. Raju had said no phones on the set. He hid everyone’s phone. I had to run in that scene. Till the time I was walking, it was okay, but when I had to run. When I would run, the shorts would come off because it was fixed by tape. I faced a lot of difficulty in that shot. I had to run fast, but I couldn’t. After one or two attempts, I told Raju, ‘Hatta yaar (Let’s remove it).’ I wanted to give the perfect shot. So I chucked it aside. I told everyone to go far behind the camera, and I ran.”

He further added, “I used to think that it would be really weird to walk naked on the set. We are not used to it. I used to feel anxious about how I would do it. Everyone would be watching. I was feeling very embarrassed. I swear, when I came on the set, I just wanted to work, and my shot was getting messed up. So I told Raju, ‘These are unimportant things. What’s the big deal if you see me naked? We need to get the shot.’ I didn’t feel embarrassed at that time. I was also shocked that I did it.”
