Actress Katrina Kaif, who is teaming up with Salman Khan again in Ek Tha Tiger, says she is not bothered about the gossip that goes around regarding her and the actor. Katrina reportedly dated Salman when she started off her career in Bollywood but later separated.
And their new movie has got the rumour mills spinning again. She was last seen with the Dabangg star in 2008 movie Yuvraaj.
“When we start working for a movie we go in as professionals. I am here to do my job and if people want to highlight baseless stories then it’s up to them. I don’t think that these stories will have any affect on my work and the film.”
“I am never bothered about such stories. Why should I? I think it’s what every actor goes through. When you start working in the industry, people taking about you becomes a part of your life. Why analyse it so much?” Katrina said.
The 27-year-old actress, who first starred alongside Salman in Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya, said she is excited to work with him again.
“I am excited about the film, it’s shaping up good. Salman is working with Yash Raj for the first time and it’s my second film with them. It’s always fun working with Salman, he makes everything very comfortable on the sets,” she said.
Katrina is also working in another Yash Raj film opposite Shah Rukh Khan. The untitled film will mark the comeback of veteran director Yash Chopra after a gap of eight years.
“I am enjoying working with Shah Rukh and Yashji. Yashji is a living legend in Indian cinema and working with him has been a learning experience for me. I am very fortunate to have got an oppurtunity to work with him. Working with him is magical.”
“And Shah Rukh is a wonderful co-star. I have learnt so much from him,” she said. With hits like Singh Is Kinng, Raajneeti, Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani and Namastey London to her credit, Katrina has always been experimental with her choice of roles.
The actress says she likes exploring herself and does not think there is any definite formula to success.
“I like experimenting with my roles… If you stick to one thing you can easily get bored. Everything in life is a risk, there is no definite way to success. Today if I do a role which I have done before there is no guarantee that the audience will like it. The higher the risk the greater will be the outcome. You won’t be able to work if you fear taking risk. I just try to give my best,” Katrina said.
The actress, who has made heads turn with her seductive act in a recent Slice ad, said, “It is a very different campaign. The new ad is very rustic and ethnic. I think it is the best one. I love the rapport which I share with the brand.”
