While the film went back to the censors for re-classification, another group of activists led by Deepa Mehta held a candlelit protest in New Delhi against the film’s withdrawal.

In ‘Untold Scandal’, an adaptation of Hollywood’s ‘Dangerous Liaisons’, she played the virtuous Madame de Tourvel who is being unwittingly seduced by Bae Yong-jun’s Valmont. And most recently, she starred in the remake of the controversial Korean classic ‘The Housemaid’, a stinging allegory that shows the downfall of a maid who has an affair with her rich master. The biggest difference between the classic and the remake, apart from being shot in lush colors and opulent sets, are the many steamy sex scenes between the actress and her co-star Lee Jun-jae. Tang Wei in ‘Lust Caution’ (2007) Chinese actress Tang Wei starred in Lee Ang’s ‘Lust Caution’ and the debut film role thrust her into the limelight, showcasing her acting and her hairy armpits and privates to an international audience. The graphic sex scenes between Tang and co-star Tony Leung Chiu Wai, featuring some “acrobatic” sexual positions, had audiences intrigued raising questions on how it was filmed and if the pair really get into the act. Even though Tang is mostly lauded by critics for her performance, with Lee and Leung winning several awards, she eventually faced a backlash from the more conservative factions of China’s authorities and was banned from acting for two years in her home country.
