Kapil Sharma joked with Shahid Kapoor and Mrunal Thakur on his show, about their passionate kissing scene in the film Jersey, calling it ‘Respiratory Therapy’. He said in Hindi, “This social work that you do sometimes, do you do it with passion or is it written in the script?” To this, Shahid said, “Physically, I do it with my mouth but you know, I need to add a little passion too.”

Talking about the kissing scene, Kapil Sharma asked Shahid Kapoor if he took Mira Kapoor to the Maldives as compensation. To this Shahid burst out in laughter.

He said, “But this is gradually happening. I think that now, she also wishes… You know, the film that I am doing now has no heroine. I think she wishes that I don’t even get a scene with a girl, I should do male-oriented films where there is one man and it’s all about his story.” as quoted by Hindustan Times.
