Director Mani Ratnam’s magnum opus Ponniyin Selvan 1 once again proved that content is the new king in the Indian film industry and the new success mantra. Starring Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Trisha Krishnan, Vikram, Karthi, Jayam Ravi and other stalwarts, the film has crossed Rs 475 crore worldwide. While Salman Khan, Sanjay Dutt and other superstars have wanted to work in South films and have already done some, Katrina Kaif has now joined the bandwagon to act in South Indian films.
Katrina is currently awaiting the release of her upcoming comedy horror film Phone Bhoot. During her recent interaction with the media, the actress expressed her desire to work in south films if someone comes up with a good script with a strong character to play on screen. “If there’s ever a script that’s compelling enough and has a strong character, language won’t be a barrier for me. We have some phenomenal directors working in South India,” she told IANS.
She then heaped praise on the Mani Ratnam director Ponniyin Selvan. “The best and most recent example is Sir Mani Ratnam’s Ponniyin Selvan: 1. Such an amazing film, na? Such grandeur, beautiful frames and music. To make a film on such a large scale at this stage in his life shows the courage of an iconic director,” she said.
Many may not know that Katrina has worked in several South films such as the 2004 Telugu release Malliswari and 2005 Allari Pidugu followed by the Malayalam film Balram Vs. Tharadas.
On the work front, Katrina will be seen in her upcoming film Phone Bhoot, which also stars Ishaan Khatter and Siddhant Chaturvedi. She plays a ghost in the film which is directed by Mirzapur famous director Gurmeet Singh. She also has Tiger 3 with Salman Khan and Jee Le Zaara alongside Alia Bhatt and Priyanka Chopra.
