She captioned the pictures as, “GOSH! Some of the WOW stills taken during my shoot for the Kamasutra Condoms advert in 1991 by the late Prabuddha Dasgupta.”
SURPRISED AND AAPREHENSIVE: POOJA ON THE CONDOM AD
Pooja’s condom ad was caught in controversy. It was banned from airing on Doordarshan but later made it to cable TV. The ad was directed by Alyque Padamsee.
In an earlier interview with The Times Of India, Pooja Bedi had talked about the ad and why she was apprehensive about it. She had said, “We shot the ad in Goa. When I signed the ad, I was told I’ll have to be in the shower and Marc Robinson will be on this boat. I was fine doing all that. However, when I reached the studio, I spotted Marc Robinson there. I asked what he was doing in the studio! That is when I got to know that the ad will also be showing him getting into the shower with me. I was told to use the hand shower on Marc! I was surprised and apprehensive although I was okay with it.”
The actress mentioned how she refused to touch Marc Robinson. She said, “After some time, I got an even bigger shock when I was told to squeeze Marc’s back! That is when I said, ‘I am so not doing that.’ I refused to touch Marc Robinson. Finally, the hand that squeezes Marc’s back towards the end of the ad was not mine but my makeup artist’s! The hand just had to look as if it was mine. I however touched him in other ads that we did together.”
WHAT’S ON THE WORK FRONT?
Pooja was last seen in Zee5’s original film Comedy Couple. The film was directed by Nachiket Samant and starred Saqib Saleem and Shweta Basu Prasad in lead roles.
