Script altered for Katrina Kaif in Thugs Of Hindostan

17 May 2017

There is a good reason why so many of the A-list heroines said no to Vijay Krishna Acharyas Thugs Of Hindustan.The heroines role as per the original script was nothing to write home about. Then Aditya Chopra personally requested Katrina Kaif to step in. She met Adi in director Vijay Krishna Acharyas presence and good-naturedly complained that Adi and Victor (Acharya) had not given her much to do the last time they signed her opposite Aamir Khan in Dhoom 3. Adi assured her the role would be mended, says the source. Apparently it was director Vijay Krishna Acharyas idea to approach Katrina after any number of actresses turned down the part. The heroines role was sketchy to begin with. It has now been fleshed out for Katrinas sake, says an informed source.
