Understandably, she's upset on being promoted as part of the cast
Katrina Kaif is horrified when told that her presence in the underwater thriller Blue, is being highlighted in the trailers and television teasers. She is keen to clarify that she is making only a brief guest appearance in the film.
She stresses, "I am only in the filmu00a0 because Akshay Kumar, who has a super role in the underwater caper, asked me to."
Shot in the foot, ain't it?
Apparently, Katrina was paid well for her brief part. "That's true," she admits candidly. "But it's a very small role. I appear for all of eight minutes in Blue. That's it. And it would be like the producers shooting themselves in their foot if they made me seem like a part of the cast."
Though we now see her sharing prominent screen space with the rest of the cast, Katrina had made it clear from the outset that that she should be kept out of the publicity for Blue.
Call it what it is!
"They've promised to keep me out of the hoardings and all publicity and also to bill me as a guest appearance in the credits because that's what it is. I don't even go underwater with the rest of the cast."
However Katrina's eight-minute appearance will create quite an impact.u00a0 "Director Tony D'Souza is very talented and also au00a0 sweetheart. We sat down together andu00a0 created au00a0 look for myu00a0 character." She sports a piercedu00a0 lower lip in the lip.
She explains, "That's not reallyu00a0 my piercedu00a0 lip. It's only a magneticu00a0 ring worn under myu00a0 lip. To give me a differentu00a0 look. I hope it makes a fashion statement." Adds the Blue director Tony D'Souza, "Rightu00a0 fromu00a0 the start we wereu00a0 very clear that Katrina'su00a0 was a guest appearance andu00a0 her name would be kept out ofu00a0 all the publicity. Iu00a0 think there should be no confusion overu00a0 thisu00a0 issue."
