As more allegations about boyfriend Sallu giving her a helping hand in Bollywood flow in, Katrina Kaif has her say, especially about Subhash Ghai's Main Yuvraj .
Katrina who's currently shooting for Abbas-Mustan's Race in Dubai has plenty to be happy about. Her heroine-centric turn in Vipul Shah's Namastey London has elicited some accolades.
"Yeah the film is doing well. And I think I've finally proved my critics wrong. Not that Namastey London is my first successful film. My first film Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya and then Sarkar were also successful. But, it's good to be recognised for a film that revolves around you," says Katrina.
Next move forward, Katrina has just signed on the dotted line for Subhash Ghai's new directorial venture Main Yuvraj where she's paired with beau Salman.
She says, "It's a big move, as Subhashji's banner is simply top-of-the-shelf. I love the way he presents heroines in his films. Look at Mahima in Pardes and Meenakshi Sheshadri in Hero . Even in male-oriented films like Karma and Ram Lakhan , Sridevi and Madhuri Dixit were no walk-overs. So yeah, I'm really looking forward to working with Subhashji on Main Yuvraj ."
People would presume Katrina bagged the role through Salman's recommendation. "To think Salman got me Subhash Ghai's film is ridiculous especially when I have Namastey London to my credit now. Actually I met Subhashji long before. He had offered me a film. I think it was Kisna . He asked Vipul Shah to show him my work in Namastey London before finalising me for Main Yuvraj . That's how I think he decided on casting me," says Katrina.
Trying to curb her annoyance about the allegation that Salman is responsible for her professional progress, Katrina says, "Do people think Subhashji is the kind of filmmaker who would listen to others before signing an actor? He would only sign an actor who suits the role and has always gone by what is right for his film."
Katrina plays a musician in Main Yuvraj . "It's the role of a modern musician and I'll have to learn to play a musical instrument for the film. I want to get into this role after being fully prepared. When I get back to Mumbai I'll learn how to play the required musical instrument. In the meanwhile, there's Race to complete," she says.
