Katrina Kaif worked in Kabir Khan's film 'New York'. However, initially she did not want to work in this film. He also rejected the film offer. But on the insistence of Salman Khan, she agreed to this film. The film's director Kabir Khan has revealed this in a recent interview. He also told that Salman and Katrina were in a relationship at that time. In an interview, Kabir Khan said, 'I met Salman Khan during the shooting of my first film 'Kabul Express'. In this meeting, Katrina was cast for my second film 'New York'. Katrina was the first choice for this film. This was his first film with Yash Raj Productions. But after hearing the story in the first meeting, she became disappointed. Perhaps she wanted to work in a 'love story' film. At that time she was dating Salman Khan. When Salman talked to Katrina about this meeting, Katrina said that 'the story of the film is good but it may not match with it.' After this Salman asked the name of the director. When he came to know that I was a director, he said, 'Close your eyes and sign the film.' I have met that boy. His work is good. Katrina told me this after many years.
