Katrina Kaif is taking her role as a politician in Raajneeti very seriously. After modelling her character on various well-known politicians, Katrina now wants to meet them so that she’d know how much of what she has done with her role is close to the truth.
Initially Raajneeti director Prakash Jha laughed off her intense level of commitment. “Tum toh Shabana Azmi ban gayi ho,” he teased Katrina. But when he realised she was serious, he got down to the business of arranging her meetings with the politicians who served as reference points for her role in the film.
Fortunately for Katrina, all the politicians who were her reference points, barring Indira Gandhi, are alive.
