Emraan Hashmi earned the title of Bollywood's 'serial kisser', but the actor says he sticks to a pre-kissing ritual to get a scene right -- he avoids berries!
In an episode of "Farah Ki Daawat", hosted by choreographer-filmmaker Farah Khan, the "Jannat" actor shared that before a kissing scene in his movies, he avoids eating any kind of berries because he is allergic to them.
But he recounted having garlic just before one such scene, just to get back at an actress. And no, he didn't take any names!
The actor also shared that his best kiss has been with a dog instead of any actress.
"Best kiss was when my dog licked my face," he quipped.
Emraan also tried his hand at cooking by helping Farah cook her signature roast chicken.
In "Farah Ki Daawat", which is aired on Colors channel, Bollywood celebrities showcase their culinary skills.
