It’s a departure in every which way for this Bollywood actress on the ascendant. She is playing a deglamorised politician and the Hindi has to be perfect too, but Britain born Katrina Kaif says her role in Rajneeti excites her more because she is now comfortable with the language.

Katrina, who has delivered a string of hits playing the urban hip young woman, gets a makeover in Prakash Jha’s Rajneeti. Dressed in cotton saris and speaking chaste Hindi, this is a challenging role that she’s looking forward to. But the Hindi is passe now for the actress, whose accented Hindi meant that her many early films had to be dubbed.

Prakash Jha’s political saga ‘Rajneeti’ is one project which is looked upon eagerly. Not only we have here a striking star cast including Nana Patekar, Katrina Kaif, Ajay Devgn, Ranbir Kapoor, Naseruddin Shah, Manoj Bajpai and Arjun Rampal but also one can get to see a totally different persona of our pretty Kat as a politician.

Playing a prank on Katrina Kaif, Ajay Devgan handed her a gift pack to give to Nana Patekar on his birthday.

Katrina was now aware, what the box contained and went on to give it to the serious actor Nana Patekar. Imagine what the box contained. It had old underwears, a fake moustache and a single chappal. Katrina charmingly offered the gift to Nana who opened the packet only to get shocked. This also enraged Katrina.

Be on your guard when Ajay Devgan happens to be around. No one cautioned Katrina Kaif about her prankster of a co-star on the sets of Rajneeti. Devgn, who is quite notorious for playing pranks on his co-actors, pulled a fast one on Katrina when she suspected the least.

On the sets of ‘Rajneeti’, he came up with a madcap idea to pull Kat’s leg. According to the stories trickling from the unit-members, Devgn first took everyone on the sets, including the actors Arjun Rampal and Manoj Bajpai, into confidence.

Even though Katrina Kaif is fed up of posing as arm candy, she agreed to star in De Dana Dan only because of close friend Akshay Kumar. Ask her why exactly did she agree to star in the film, and Katrina replies honestly, “My reason for accepting this film is only because Akshay asked me if I would do it.”

She adds, “Akshay is a friend and I could never refuse. The two of us have given some of the biggest hits together. When I learnt De Dana Dan is Akshay’s home production (Akshay’s Hari Om Productions is producing the film in partnership with Ratan Jain’s Venus Productions) I said yes without hesitation.”
