Bharat starring Salman Khan alongside Katrina Kaif will be soon hitting the theatres. As the release date of the movie is close by, the star cast of the movie is ensuring to reveal some interesting facts about the characters of the movie. Bharat is an official remake of the South Korean movie 'Ode To My Father.' It is directed by Ali Abbas Zafar and has been much in the news.
Katrina said, “It’s so strong and unusual. I was happy that he wrote the film with someone else in mind, as certain nuances of the person seep into the writing unknowingly. And, since Kumud was written for someone else, it ended up being unlike anything I have done before. Personally, it was a challenge to immerse me into it and give it my all.” She added, “I had two months to prepare for the part. Ali (Abbas Zafar, director) told me that Priyanka would not be doing the film anymore.”
Katrina Kaif's role was previously offered to Priyanka Chopra. However, due to unavailability of dates, Priyanka Chopra denied to sign up the movie. Due to her marriage with Nick Jonas, Priyanka Chopra had to take this decision.
Katrina Kaif will be seen as a strong woman in Bharat. Her character's name is Kumud Raina. In fact, Salman Khan referred to her character as Madam Sir in the poster release. Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif have shared the screen space in movies like Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai, Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya. However, the character of Katrina Kaif is quite unique in this movie.
