Mumbai: Actress Parineeti Chopra says that her onscreen kiss in a special song titled Jaaneman Aah from upcoming film Dishoom was her co-star Varun Dhawan's idea.

"It was Varun's idea that we should have a kiss at the end of the song. On the day of the shoot, Rohit Dhawan (the film's director and Varun's brother) wasn't there so that's when Varun popped the idea. But this was not known to anyone on the sets including Ahmed Khan (choreographer). When the kiss happened everyone was shocked seeing the addition," Parineeti told reporters.

The 27-year-old actress was all praises for the Student Of The Year actor. "Varun is so energetic. He likes improvisation. He is spontaneous," she said.

Varun and Parineeti had two days to practice for the song and it was shot in just one take.

"The idea was to get that Nineties feel of Govinda and Karisma Kapoor for this song. We hope we have done justice to it. We both are perfect for this song," Varun said. Considering that the song was a first special number for Parineeti, Varun was worried whether she would do it.

"Parineeti is doing a cameo in the film. We can't reveal what she is playing. I was worried if Parineeti will do this part or not. When I met her at an event and asked her about doing a cameo in Dishoom and she agreed," Varun said.

Dishoom also stars John Abraham, Jacqueline Fernandez and Akshaye Khanna. The film is set to release on July 29.
