Funnily enough, Upen Patel seems to regard himself as a serious actor and feels that taking off his shirt for lusting female fans is beyond his dignity. Huh, well let’s set him straight, shall we?

Recently at a shoot for Money Hai to Honey Hai, Upen Patel ripped up his shirt with scissors to prove his point that he refuses to go shirtless. So, in his refusal to not wear clothes, he cut up the clothes. Yeah, that makes sense, smart Upen.

He says,

“I do not have a temper problem. And I certainly don’t throw a fit for no reason. But there’s just so much a person take before losing his cool.

One day these costume designers would ask me to show my body in my clothes. The next day they wanted me shirtless for no rhyme or reason. I strongly believe the clothes play a big hand in establishing a graph and continuity to the characters.

You can’t put me in any thing just because I’ve a good body. Sorry. I won’t flaunt my physique for no rhyme or reason.”

There is a reason…for some reason, girls drool after Upen without his shirt (Goodness knows why, I think he’s gross), and that is a major selling point to a movie. He isn’t an actor, just a gimmick to draw sex-starved girls (and guys) into cinema’s. Maybe I’m mean, but prove me wrong.

Oh, and to deal with Upen’s hissy fit, the producer got a designer of Upen’s choice flown out to Mauritius to deal with the little diva. I’m sure he’ll explain to Upen why being shirtless is important and you’ll still end up seeing his chest. Whoo-freaking-hoo.
