Katrina Kaif was nominated for Filmfare Best Actress award for 2009 for the movie New York. When asked that apart from her whom would she choose for an award, she pointed Priyanka Chopra and Vidya Balan but smilingly asked “But why can’t I choose myself?” Deepika Padukone and Kareena Kapoor are also in the race.
She concluded saying that she is happy for getting nominated “I am happy being nominated. I don’t want to go through that nail-biting experience of whether I am winning the award or not. As long as I am nominated, it is fine. And I am more happy to be part of the event than winning any award. This is my second year at the Filmfare awards and I will be performing, too.”

MUMBAI: Actress Katrina Kaif seems to be following beau Salman Khan’s footsteps. Every fortnight, Salman is known to make an appearance for his fans on the balcony of his Galaxy Apartment in Mumbai’s Bandra neighbourhood. At times, he even meets them personally. Katrina did the same at her house in Andheri recently.
“Katrina was down with a fever and food poisoning, but she kept her professional commitments,” says a source. While she was leaving to perform at an awards functions, she saw fans who had gathered near her building for a glimpse of her. “So she came out of her car and spent 15 minutes with them,” adds the source.
Also like Salman, who often travels in an auto-rickshaw to work, recently Katrina made her first auto-ride. The actress and her manager had come out of a multiplex after watching Ishqiya at 10.30 pm. “When she couldn’t find her driver due to bad network connectivity, she immediately took an auto from Bandra to Andheri,” says the source.

NEW DELHI: My Mottu Maid has just sauntered in with my jasmine tea and insists on serving a tiddy-bitty on Katrina Kaif. Seems the gorgeous abhinetri is very upset about the controversies surrounding her bagging a trophy at an award ceremony recently. So?
So when she learnt that she was going to be presented with an award by the Lions’ Club on Thursday evening, she opted to disappear from public gaze, says Mottu. Kat preferred to stay in the comfort of her Bandra home rather than risk being bombarded with queries about her award controversy.
Mots claims that Kat will continue to remain away from media glare for a couple of weeks.
MUMBAI: After the super success of Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani, they have become the hottest onscreen pair in Bollywood today. And now, Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif are ready for an encore. They will star in Imtiaz Ali’s next, his long-in-the-pipeline project Rock Star.
The film has passed through the hands of many potential rock stars. Imtiaz first offered it to John Abraham. Excited as hell, John had begun to prepare for the part and even started to learn the guitar in 2008.
Then, Imtiaz found an option – Saif Ali Khan seemed perfect for Rock Star because he was almost one in real life. If he played the role, he didn’t even need to start learning the guitar. However, Saif and Imtiaz did Love Aaj Kal instead. During the making of the film, Rishi Kapoor, who also starred in it, was so impressed by Imtiaz that he swore he would make the director work with his son Ranbir.
Says a source, “Imtiaz and Ranbir met many times in the past few months and discussed several projects. But it was Rock Star that Ranbir liked the best.”
We hear Ranbir will be learning to play the guitar for the part as soon as he finishes with Siddharth Anand’s Anjaana Anjaani. Ranbir was heard telling a friend, “Who wouldn’t be excited about playing rock star? It’s a dream role.” To add to the magic, Ranbir’s co-star in Rock Star is Katrina Kaif – a combo every filmmaker in Bollywood wants to get together.
Attempts are on to sign Katrina for the only other film Ranbir has signed for 2010, which is being directed by Anurag Basu. However it’s the Imtiaz Ali project that Katrina has apparently said yes to so far.
And contrary to perception that AR Rahman is doing the music, it’s apparently the tried and tested Pritam
Chakraborty. “After Jab We Met and Love Aaj Kal, who wants to break the Imtiaz Ali-Pritam team?” wonders a source close to the project. “Ranbir will go all out to prepare for his part as a rock star. He wants to look every inch the part. That includes the sinewy muscled physique and expertise with the guitar strings.”
Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra in Italian Job, Abbas Mustan’s desi version of the 2003 heist caper The Italian Job just got bigger. The Indian version has two female pivotal parts as against just one in the original. According to reliable sources, the ladies who will step into the parts are Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra.
The cast already has Abhishek Bachchan and Neil Nitin Mukesh, while Akshaye Khanna and Kunal Kapoor are being brought in to play the other male leads. Rohit Jugraj, who’s writing the screenplay for the yet untitled film, says he has improvised on the original. “Though the producers, TV 18, and Abbas Mustan have bought the remake rights, we’ve changed the Hindi version of The Italian Job considerably. For one, the stakes for the heist are much higher. The situations, fights and adventures are all different – and so are the characters.”
