Although Priyanka was Ali's first choice, I'm happy it came to me: Katrina Kaif on being a part Bharat

Katrina Kaif who is currently busy with the promotions of her upcoming film Bharat starring Salman Khan recently opened up about her role, working with Salman again and interesting roles which director Ali Abbas Zafar offers her.

In an interview with an entertainment website, Katrina opened up on her role in Bharat. She said, "When you ask me about the changes that people are noticing in me, the primary reason for that is the character that I'm playing. Ali writes interesting roles for me and I'm super fortunate to have characters like the ones in Zero and Bharat."

Talking about her not being the first choice to play the female lead in Bharat, Katrina said, "Although I wasn't Ali's first choice and it was Priyanka (Chopra), I'm happy it has come to me. When I read the character of Kumud, I felt there's so much I can do in it and I wanted to immerse myself completely into it. I just hope that I keep getting to play such exciting characters which have enough meat in them."

Katrina, who has worked with Salman several times before, says that the two 'work well together' as they do not take anything for granted. "The best thing about me and Salman coming together to work is that there's no sense of us taking it for granted. We don't go to the sets thinking, 'dekhte hai.' He knows that I'm going to come after putting 1000% of my time and effort behind finding the character, doing my prep. He has that confidence in me and I know when he comes, he's going to come up with something unique," Katrina added.

Bharat will release on Eid 2019.
