The second season of Mirzapur ended with a major cliffhanger and left many questions unanswered. Golu (played by Shweta Tripathi Sharma) and Chote Tyagi’s (essayed by Vijay Varma) scene where they embark on an erotic journey with the latter having a sexual awakening is one of them. The surprise left Mirzapur fans wondering what shape this tension and sexually charged chemistry between them would take. There’s a lot of uncertainty on whether it’s him who is dead or his evil twin, Bade.
Ahead of the release of Mirzapur season 3, News18 Showsha exclusively catches up with Vijay, who dissects the much-talked-about intimate scene between Chote and Golu. “That moment had this boy who is very wide-eyed, innocent, and romantic in his heart and head and is head-over-heels in love with this girl. What happened then is that he probably learned something about himself. She was the teacher there,” he recalls the scene.
He adds, “It was interesting for this character to go through an interesting experiment like this with Golu. On the surface, she comes across as a very normal and cutesy girl. But people forget that in her first scene, she’s seen reading an erotica of a certain nature in a library. She’s bent differently and she introduces him to it [erotic sex].”
This sequence might appear to surface straight out of an erotica but Vijay states that ‘this is exactly how life plays out’. “We learn so much from our partners. Early on, especially sexually, it’s not like you discover everything on your own. When you meet a certain kind of energy, you turn from a boy into a man,” he points out. Talking about his input in the scene, the Lust Stories and Dahaad actor tells us, “When Golu gives him the belt and says maaro, he starts beating himself. When I came up with this idea, Guru (Gurmmeet Singh; director) started laughing. I told him that this guy doesn’t know what she means.”
Vijay also reveals that unlike the first two, this season of Mirzapur had an intimacy coordinator on set. According to him, their role is colossal and workshops with them go a long way in creating a ‘protected’ environment during the shoot. “If you learn the tools from intimacy coordination workshops, you can easily apply them on a set where there’s none. I found the information and the exercises to be so helpful,” he explains.
Debunking the sensationalism surrounding the shoot of physically intimate sequences, he asserts that it involves a structured choreography that abounds in a whole lot of technicalities. “It’s similar to any other movement-based and touch-based exercise. So, sexual scenes are similar to action and dance sequences. These three have the same kind of prep where you’ll be told what you can touch and what you cannot. Everything is understood in terms of what’s your safe zone and no-go zone. In these scenes, you don’t react to your feelings but stick to the structure of the choreography,” Vijay elaborates.
