Family comes first for Kat

Katrina Kaif is firm about her priorities. The actress puts her family before all else — even a staggering sum of Rs 5 crores if need be. Buzz is that Kat was offered the whopping amount for a New Year’s Eve performance at one of Mumbai’s five star hotels. But the actress turned it down to be with her family for the holiday season — a tradition she has maintained for years. If the news of her being offered the sum is indeed true, then it would be a first in Bollywood. King Khan himself was offered `4 crores last year. “Katrina never takes up work during the last few days of December. She makes it a point to spend time with her family in London and plans to do the same this year, unless she’s caught up with a shoot schedule for Dhoom 3. In that case, she’ll make an exception since it’s a prior commitment,” says a source close to the actress. From what we hear, this is not the first time that Kat has turned down the big bucks. She has in the past, ditched a 10-minutes performance for which she was offered `3 crores. As much moolah as the male actors may rake in through the year, the year-end is all about the ladies nights. Besides, like they say, there are some things money can’t buy. In Katrina’s case, it is family fun time!
