Bollywood is heavily invested on franchises lately. That's because sequels have more often than not been successful. These franchises have kept many people relevant these days. Guess that prompted this A-list actress to dial up a top actor and coax him to do a sequel to their previous hit. Now, the actor is not too keen about it because he has his hands full for the next few years. But he has promised to consider it.

This A-list actress just go huge boost to her career with the release of a sequel. Her last release with her ex helped her gain a lot of popularity at the box office. In fact, we hear she has decided to do only glamorous roles. She wants to look extremely hot in all her films. She has often been praised for her beauty and stylish avatars. Critics weren't as kind however regarding her acting skills. That made her reach out to the superstar for help in the form of doing a sequel to their previous hit. The original was more about style and less about storyline.

The original wasn't really a blockbuster but grabbed a lot of eyeballs for being extremely sleek. In fact, rumours in the trade suggest, it didn't even make money for the studio behind it, but the actress is pretty confident this will only add to another hit to her kitty. What is amusing here is that her upcoming films are all biggies, films that every actress would love to be part of. So why this desperation?

Honestly I am impressed that Kat still has that fire in her to stay relevant in Bollywood ..

I was under the impression that she was just making hay while the sun shines with the full knowledge that its all strictly temporary & very very limited .. Good that she still thinks she has few more good years left .. Kinda depressing & impressive at the same time ..

Not sure what's so cunning about taking an initiative even though Kar does come across as calculating and manipulative. You don't make it as a complete outsider, not knowing the language even without it.
The top actor is obviously Hrithik Roshan and the film Bang Bang.

and what is cunning in that?? If this is cunning then making sequels to hit movies is cunning ...so according to you Bahubali 2, TZH, Dabang 2 etc etc are all the result of being cunning?

Oh I think people are just sore that KAT who is supposed to have vanished off the face of the earth three years back is still going strong, with a huge hit behind her, where she made an impact and busy filming two big films simultaneously and one awaiting filming with today's hot property young hero.
Her good attitude, professionalism is paying off otherwise why would she get offered films when she doesn't hang out as buddies with filmmakers, flatter them or go berserk doing photoshoots and interviews.

She has done a really smart thing by bypassing the negative press who used to write wrong things and establishing direct contact with her fans via instagram.

Why would a dance film be made with a big hero and she be signed. Because she delivers. And the filmmakers know her good attitude.

She doesn't do cheap things by bitching about someone or circulating gossip or wearing cheap clothes to get in the news.

The naysayers can say nothing against her so they magick up a abstract term like 'manipulative' for the way she goes about her career. Ab they can't say she flirts, or is a dodo or is black-hearted.

If Katrina is manipulative, then others are maybe doctorates in the art of flattering, chasing, pestering people to get movies.

First of all, I don't think this is true. The BW media is known for publishing rubbish. Wasn't Bang Bang a flop? Who would want a sequel of that?

Katrina definitely doesn't need it anyway. She's in the two biggest movies coming up and has a new dance movie with a young star that plays to her strengths.

There's nothing wrong in taking initiative but why would she do it for a sequel of Bang Bang? It has to at least make sense. 😆

And keeping herself relevant in today's audience and doing so for the last 15 years as an A-lister when she clearly has a strong competition is extremely hard. If I was Katrina, I would be this cunning and manipulative. Remember, Bollywood has an deeply embedded sexism that is rooted in their industry and mindsets. Kudos Katrina for not giving shit about that, and carving her own way that is just wow.

Bang Bang was a Hit. Yes, it cud hv been a Superhit if not for the injuries n delays.

But, the studio wud not hv made a prequel like "A Gentleman" n now registered the title "Bang Bang 2" for a sequal if they did not make money. There is a section of Sickular media that always likes to put down Hrithik films - that too whenever it crosses Khans collections. They did it when Krrish 3 crossed Chennai Express. And did the same when Foxstar's Bang Bang beat Kick opening but also started to cross it.

Anyway, i think there is more to the Blind. There has been signs that Kat is very keen to work with Hrithik for a long time now. She even wanted to work in Krrish 4. Maybe she has feelings for him. Hope Hrithik does not fall in the trap. On second thoughts, why not? They r Single and make an Awesome Couple. It will give a massive burn to many if they both start dating. 😆 But going by the interviews, i doubt if he is even remotely interested in her. He is the only Star who was never in awe of Kat n used to get irritated by her. Unlike Salman or Ranbir or SRK.
