Israeli actor Itai Turgeman revealed on the reality show "The Winning Kitchen VIP" that intimate scenes with co-stars, who are not his spouse, are not something he seeks in a role and he prefers to avoid them. Turgeman explained that while he has performed such scenes with "the entire industry," he invites his wife to set to witness them, as he did during the filming of "Ha'Shavua Ha'Ba La'Bayit" (The Week Ahead for the House), telling her, "For you, come and see." He acknowledged that feelings can sometimes arise on set, but only when "you let it ignite."

This statement prompted actor Avery Geller to share a personal experience. Geller confessed that during the filming of a movie, he "completely fell in love" with his co-star, admitting it was "a little more than a kiss." When pressed by fellow guests to identify the actress, Geller declined to name her but hinted that he had only acted in one film. Records show Geller starred in the 1988 film "Yehoshua Yehoshua" as the titular character. He had previously revealed that during the filming of that movie, he was in love with Osi Hillel, whom he called "the star of the film."
