I'M COMING BACK END OF THIS WEEK
...says Katrina Kaif from Dubai, reacting to Salman Khan's conviction in the black buck case
RUBINA A KHAN Times News Network
Katrina Kaif is returning to Mumbai at the end of the week from Dubai, where she is currently shooting. Reacting to news of Salman Khan's conviction in the black buck case, Katrina told BT, "I don't want to comment on this. I'm abroad shooting, and will be back on February 25." BT had done an interview with Katrina a few days ago. Some excerpts...
Salman as a friend and lover...
I guard my personal life fiercely and don't let anyone in that space. I don't need the outside world's perception of me. A new opinion is formed everyday. I definitely don't want to participate in all of that.
On his past relationships...
Anything that doesn't concern me doesn't bother me at all. I live in the now and today. My own past doesn't concern me, so why should his? Everything is not a controversy. The past is the past — I would like to see someone go back in time and change the past!
On Salman as a co-star...
Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya was my first commercial Hindi film after Boom and Sarkar. I was very dependent on Salman, Sohail and Sushmita (Sen) and they were all very willing to help me out. I would see Salman joking around the sets, but once the shot was ready, he was totally prepared and focussed. I learnt a lot from him on how to concentrate and focus on my work.
Her favourite Salman film?
Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya for obvious reasons!
Best actor in Indian cinema today is?
Aamir Khan is the best actor today, though, I also like Hrithik Roshan's style.
Born to a Kashmiri father and British mother, does Katrina feel more Indian or British?
I feel more Indian in my heart. Fortunately or unfortunately, we live in a world where we do see colour. I'm looked at as ethnic because I'm neither white nor blonde.
