TV actor Leenesh Mattoo, who will next be seen in “Ishqbaaz”, felt embarrassed when he flaunted his toned physique in a pool for the upcoming show and the crowd started whistling while staring at him.

Leenesh, who was last seen in “Suhani Si Ek Ladki”, will be seen playing the role of Rudra in “Ishqbaaz”.

While shooting for the first promo for the show, Leenesh was asked to flaunt his body and the build that signifies Rudra and his larger than life personality.

But the actor felt shy when people near the pool started staring at him.

“Rudra is flamboyant and lives life on his own terms. He’s a free spirited boy who loves enjoying to the fullest. And such stares at his body would have been a regular for him, but while we were shooting, it was embarrassing when people were almost whistling and staring at me every time I got out of the pool,” Leenesh said in a statement.

“Ishqbaaz”, which will be aired on Star Plus, will tell the story of three brothers, Omkar, Rudra and Shivaay.

Actors Nakuul Mehta and Kunal Jaisingh will be seen as Shivaay and Omkar.
