In 'Tum...', Manisha has stepped into the skin of her character. After exposing to the hilt in Shashilal Nair's 'Ek Chhotisi Love Story' (and later crying foul) Manisha strips once again in producer Ratan Jain's 'TUM...' directed by Aruna Raje, renowned as she is for her gutsy themes.
The film has three lengthy love-making scenes featuring Manisha Koirala, the first with Karan Nath who plays a fashion photographer and later with Rajat Kapoor who plays Manisha's husband in the movie. One passionate sequence in bed accompanied by a song lasts for about four minutes, though the movie also boasts of other bold and sexy scenes.
In fact, some time back 'Tum...' ran into serious trouble when it was shown to censor board members. They refused to give the movie a censor certificate and asked for 16 major cuts before submitting it again! They also demanded the producer to shorten the length of each love-making scene by 50 percent.
But director Aruna Raje put her foot down. She insisted that since the censors were awarding an adult certificate to 'Tum...', the cuts were unreasonable as they were very crucial to film's narrative. Finally after a month long battle, Aruna Raje emerged victorious as they relented and passed the film without any cut.
