Katrina defends shetty against trolls

-

Sooryavans­hi director Rohit Shetty recently drew heavy criticism for saying that, considerin­g the upcoming film is packed with high-voltage action featuring machomen Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn, and Ranveer Singh, no one would even look at his film’s heroine Katrina Kaif.

While Shetty’s comment sparked a storm on social media, Katrina on Monday came out to sportingly defend her director on Instagram. “I feel a comment made by Rohit sir has been taken out of context and is been entirely misunderst­ood. I am referring to the comment as reported that Rohit Shetty said, ‘No one would look at me in the frame, as there are three boys there and a blast happening.’ This is not what was said. I mentioned that I had blinked in the shot, and Rohit sir said, ‘There are four people together in the frame and a bomb blast happening, no one will notice you BLINKING.’ In spite of that, we still did one more take. I share a very warm equation and friendship with Rohit sir and have always enjoyed our discussion­s on everything from cinema to my character and, more importantl­y, he has always been there as a friend for me. This has been taken entirely taken out of context,” Katrina wrote.
