Sharman Joshi has left his audience in stitches with his excellent comic timing in the past. But the actor's next step will definitely be a jaw dropping one, as he is all set to let go his family-boy-image in 'Hate Story 3'.

The actor said he has no fear about letting go of his modesty in his next starring Zarine Khan.

He says, "We all enjoy erotica privately so what's wrong if one is doing it in a film made for mass consumption?"

He says if the film demands he might also drop his pants. "We're planning to do stuff which hasn't been attempted in this genre before. If the script requires me to go butt naked, I am willing to drop my pants. I believe if erotica is shot aesthetically, it can be sexy," added the actor

When asked will it be a full-frontal nudity, he said, "No, I think we aren't ready for that yet.Even as far as showing the derriere is concerned, we will have to see how the Censor Board reacts to it."
