Superstar Salman Khan on Monday welcomed Katrina Kaif to the cast of Bharat in style, by calling her sundar (beautiful) and susheel (virtuous).
‘Ek sundar aur susheel ladki jiska naam hai Katrina Kaif… Swagat hai aapka Bharat ki zindagi mein (A beautiful and virtuous girl named Katrina… We welcome you the world of ‘Bharat’),” Salman tweeted.
Katrina, who has given several hits with Salman at the box office, will play his love interest in Bharat, directed by Ali Abbas Zafar.
The three are reuniting for the period drama after Tiger Zinda Hai. Zafar had also directed Katrina in Mere Brother Ki Dulhan, and is looking forward to working with his ‘three collaboration buddy’. Katrina has stepped into a role which was originally being played by Priyanka Chopra, who according to Zafar, opted out of the project ‘in the Nick of time’. His announcement alluded to US media speculations about Priyanka’s engagement to Nick Jonas. (IANS)
