Salman Khan on Katrina Kaif being first choice for ‘Bharat’

After Priyanka Chopra’s exit from Ali Abbas Zafar’s ‘Bharat’, Salman Khan has not much said about the situation. However, in what will seem like revelation, Khan said that Katrina Kaif was actually the initial choice for the film before Chopra.

He said, “It was sweet of her to tell us five days before the shoot that she couldn’t do Bharat. I’m glad Katrina is part of the film. She was Atul’s [Agnihotri, producer] first choice. But Priyanka called Ali [Abbas Zafar, director] and said she wanted to do Bharat, so we considered her.”

He added, “I hope the other movie that she has signed, works out. Now that she is engaged, we are happy for her. I hope she gets married soon, has children and lives happily ever after.”

‘Bharat’ releases on Eid 2019.
