Katrina Kaif will co -star with Shah Rukh Khan in Yash Chopra’s next movie.

Yash Chopra is back to directing after four years. For his project he has managed a casting coup of sorts by signing Amitabh Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan, Katrina Kaif and Shah Rukh Khan.

The pairing of Katrina with Shah Rukh is odd because of the cold war between Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina’s beau Salman Khan. They were driven to opposite camps after the infamous brawl at Katrina’s birthday party between SRK and Salman.

But Katrina has broken some ice earlier by starring in Shah Rukh Khan’s Temptations Reloaded Tour in the Middle East. Now she has taken a step forward by signing for Yash Chopra’s project as lead actress opposite Shah Rukh Khan.

When Yash Chopra approached her, she could not refuse, as it was a dream for her to work under the legendary director. Most actors will kill for a chance to work with Yash Chopra.

Katrina Kaif lost an opportunity earlier when she was supposed to do Yash Raj Films’ Bachna Ae Haseeno but later refused to do the movie. Fair enough, she is in Yash Raj Films’ next film, New York, directed by Kabir Khan starring Neil Nitin Mukesh and John Abraham
