Katrina in Demand

Heard this??The real cause behind the ugly spat between sizzling hot Katrina Kaif and her hot headed boyfriend Salman Khan that took a few days ago in a suburban coffee shop, has turned out to be the contentious issue of an item number by Katrina.

Sallubhai was insisting that Katrina perform an item number in his upcoming film ‘ Wanted Dead or Alive’ but Kat was adamant on not doing it, as she considered it to be below her newly acquired bollywood status and more befitting of a B grade heroine.

Sources say that on the day of quarrel, Salman Khan was seen requesting Katrina Kaif to do a favor by dancing in the film as ‘ Wanted Dead or Alive’ had Ayesha Takia in the female lead and required a hot item song to make it more attractive to the audiences. But Katrina Kaif was not amenable to his requests and kept repeating that doing item song would be an embarrassing proposition and would adversely affect her big film producers.

At this Sallubhai got furious and started shouting but Katrina Kaif too was in no mood to back out and responded in the same manner. This led to people from other tables giving them attention and finally making the whole affair a funny episode being watched by so many people.

However, now it has come to light that Sallubhai’s ultimatum of that day worked and Katrina gave her assent to do an item song for the Prabhudeva directed ‘Wanted Dead or Alive’. Now, Katrina Kaif and director Prabhudeva are trying to work out an amicable date for the final shooting of the item number.

The buzz doing the rounds in the industry is that Katrina did not want to do item numbers because recently she had signed some big movies with big time producers and her stock in bollywood gone up after hits like ‘Namastey London’ with Akshay. Some of the big films that she has been working in include ‘Singh is Kinng’ with Akshay Kumar, ‘Race’ with Saif etc. Besides these, Katrina has also signed a Yash Raj film opposite John Abraham and another two film contract with TV18.

‘Wanted Dead or Alive’ is a Hindi remake of Telugu super hit film ‘Pokhri’ and has Salman Khan and refreshing Ayesha Takia in the lead. The Hindi remake is being produced by Boney Kapoor and directed by south dancing sensation Prabhudeva while choreography is being looked after by Prabhudeva’s brother.
