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.

According to the script Sonali was to interview Sharbani and while the interview is on, some people from town charge towards them. They force Sonali to abandon the interview and leave from the place. "As luck would have it, we had chosen one particular field for this shot and taken due permissions. However, when we started the shoot, suddenly one of the owners of this field came rushing in and asked us to leave. I very patiently told him that we had taken prior permission and paid. Still he kept insisting and started shouting and ordering us to scram", informs director Mazhar Kamran. He laughs, "When I offered to pay more money, he just tripped and began abusing also. It was exactly the way we wanted our shoot to be. Eventually we moved over to other spot but not before I told my artiste playing the local goons, to learn from real incident and bring the same velocity in their behavior also."
