Despite playing various romantic roles, she has never violated this rule. Although her film 'Love Story' was a story centered entirely on romance, she had made her rule clear to director Shekhar Kammula from the very beginning and firmly stated that he would not participate in any kissing scenes.

Sai Pallavi's kiss scene with Naga Chaitanya stirred up confusion

The chemistry Sai Pallavi shared with Naga Chaitanya in this film captivated the audience. The intimacy between the two appeared so intense in some scenes that many believed a real kissing scene had taken place, breaking the actress's kiss rule.

Reacting to the kiss scene in 'Love Story' during a 2021 interview with Gulta, Sai Pallavi clarified that, “I never do kissing scenes. It is against my policy.

Through this, she has expressed her principles and, at the same time, her acting skills.
