Katrina Kaif replaces Priyanka Chopra in Salman Khan’s Bharat

katrina kaif replaces priyanka chopra in salman khan starrer bharat

After Priyanka Chopra quit Salman Khan’s upcoming film Bharat, Katrina Kaif has joined the cast of the film as its leading lady. Katrina was last seen opposite Salman in 2017 blockbuster Tiger Zinda Hai. Bharat is being directed by Ali Abbas Zafar. This is the second Eid release of Zafar and Salman after 2016 film Sultan.

Director Zafar shared, “I am extremely excited to work with Katrina Kaif and Salman Khan once again for Bharat. We have had exciting collaborations in the past and it is very interesting to work with the duo once again. Katrina got on board in the Nick of time for the project and it is very delightful to work with the immensely talented actress yet again.”

Katrina will play the love interest of Salman. She will be joining the shoot in the upcoming schedule beginning in September. Bharat began production earlier this month and the first look of the film is already out. The film will reportedly feature Salman in five different looks over 60 years. He will also be recreating his look from Karan-Arjun. The film will be shot in Malta and Abu Dhabi, besides Punjab and Delhi in India.

Priyanka Chopra’s exit from the film ruffled a few feathers. Reel Life Productions CEO Nikhil Namit told Mid-Day, “Priyanka told us she had to exit due to her engagement, two days ago. It was a little unprofessional of her to do it so suddenly.” However, director Ali Abbas Zafar called her departure as “very very special” and wished her “loads of love & happiness”.

Produced by Atul Agnihotri’s Reel Life Productions and Bhushan Kumar’s T-Series, Bharat releases on Eid 2019.

Emma Thompson: I was always paid less than my male counterparts

Emma Thompson says she was always paid less than her male colleagues. The 59-year-old actor-writer said women are still treated as “second-class citizens”. She also advocated to publish salaries to reveal the gender pay gap. “I was always paid less than my male counterparts. Publishing figures is the first step. “It’s a forensic way of looking at how women are second-class citizens, and I appreciate that because it’s not emotional. This is the fact: this person does the same work for less money, and that’s just wrong,” Thompson told Good Housekeeping magazine.

Dhadak review: There is no ‘dhak dhak’ in this Janhvi Kapoor and Ishaan Khatter starrer

Dhadak movie cast: Ishaan Khatter, Janhvi Kapoor, Ashutosh Rana, Kharaj Mukherjee, Aditya Kumar Dhadak movie director: Shashank Khaitan Dhadak movie rating: One and a half stars Remaking Sairat for mainstream Bollywood was always going to be a tough ask. The edges of that searing 2016 tale of love-in-the-time-of-caste were necessarily going to have to be blunted and softened, because too much ‘realism’ is hard for us to handle. There isn’t a filmmaker working in India who can match Sairat director Nagraj Manjule’s appetite for recreating raw slap-in-the-face directness for the screen: the only one who can match him is Sanal Sashidharan, and neither of them work, for obvious reasons, in Bollywood, where dirt needs to be proffered up in pretty ribbons. What I was expecting from this Karan Johar production, I got– a polish-up-the-muck aesthetic to make it palatable for mainstream audiences. What I didn’t get, was feeling. That sense of playfulness ...
