Abhishek gives Katrina the cold shoulder

Katrina Kaif starred opposite Abhishek Bachchan in Ram Gopal Varma’s Sarkar, but they have never worked together since then. And with reason.

Katrina Kaif starred opposite Abhishek Bachchan in Ram Gopal Varma’s Sarkar, but they have never worked together since then. And with reason. Rumours were rife that there was a definite tension between the two for a very long time. This was quite obvious at the opening of the Mami Film Festival on Friday where a very clear moment of awkwardness occurred between Abhishek and Katrina for everyone to see.

A star, who was a direct witness to the tense encounter comments, “Abhishek is by nature, a very warm and gregarious person. When he arrived at Mami, he greeted his colleagues with a warm hug. But when he met Katrina, he froze and finally hugged her lightly. Their stiff, reluctant body language said it all.”

While know-alls attribute the Abhishek-Katrina cold war to the ‘Salman’ factor, the reason for their fall-out is very different. Says a source, “Katrina has turned down at least six-seven films with Abhishek. If she thinks he is not aware of her refusal to work with him, then she is highly deluded.”
