Katrina: I am unaware of who was selected before me for Bharat

Speaking to Mirror Online, the actress confessed that she was unaware about who was roped in to play Kumud before her. She recalls learning about the movie on the sets of Tiger Zinda Hai. The actress was filming for the Ek Tha Tiger sequel with Salman. She added that Priyanka had her own reasons for not doing Bharat. She feels that she was destined to portray the role.

"I am unaware of who was selected before me for Bharat. Ali Abbas had spoken to me regarding the script and role of Bharat when I was shooting Tiger Zinda Hai with Salman Khan," she said.

Katrina added, "Everyone has a different perspective of looking at things. I cannot be in every Salman Khan film. If Priyanka was chosen for this role then she had her own reasons for not doing it. Doing Bharat was written in my destiny and I am happy it came to me. When I read the script I simply loved it and I think this is the best role of mine so far."

The actress also said that it doesn't matter who was the first or second choice. "The question of being the first or second choice doesn’t seem to be relevant to me at all. It’s also not about anyone’s ego," she said.

Sallu, Atul and Ali already spilled everything about the casting so no need to lie kat.

In simple words “ I was the first choice. Whoever it went to was the second .”

Salman has not only unnecessarily dragged Priyanka's name during Bharat's promotions but has also been disrespectful towards Katrina .. Just look at the position he has put Kat in .. Egoistic , arrogant , man child , criminal , dumbass !!

Is she trying to backup the story that Priyanka called Arpita to get the role?

Is not having a spine also in your destiny, Katrina? If you were unaware am sure Salman's 100 bitchy meltdowns over it made you aware alright.

Bas faltu ka natak shuru. Katrina se log questions puchhte hi kyun hai aur wo answer dene ka kasht kyun karti hai. Automate karle apne answers, waise bhi gine chune robotic answers hain. Just like Amazon's customer service chat.

Ghuma Fira ke .. Yess

She said she heard the script while doing Tiger so matlab she was the first choice which means PC was the second choice ( salman and ali both have admitted to it) so ya..

Everyone keeps playing cat and mouse games of who was first and who wasn't, and honestly why does it matter now, the film is already done?

If who was the first choice did not matter to her ever why was her PR harping she was the first choice for deepika's movies every fudging time?!
