Somehow, I do not understand why "Julie" has been understood to be a sex film. She is a call-girl in the film but the film is not at all about sex. In fact, the film had a valid message, especially for hypocrite men and women. Or is it because there was a kissing scene? Well, then since AB and Rani M kissed in Black (quite a perverted and ugly one, that - apparently, Mr. Srivastava didn't teach Michelle that love could be of different kinds), does it become a sex film? Or was it because of the back less shot? Well, what about the HUGE number of back shots in myriads of hindi films till date? Is Satyam Shivan Sundaram or Ram teri Ganga Maili or even Phoolan Devi a sex film by that logic? There have been numerous bedroom and bathing scenes in almost all hindi films of yore and they included almost all leading "ladies" and "gents" of their times.
