Debutante Zarine Khan doesn’t mind being compared to her ‘Veer’ co-star Salman Khan’s girlfriend Katrina Kaif and says that the actress is so beautiful that even she couldn’t take her eyes off.
‘Being compared to Katrina Kaif is a huge compliment for me because I feel she is very beautiful. When I am compared to her, I feel overwhelmed. I have met her a couple of times and she is so beautiful that even I couldn’t take my eyes off her,’ Zarine told IANS.
‘Salman is a huge actor and I am one of his great fans. I started talking to him like his fans would do. I had no clue that he was planning to take me in his film (’Veer’). Finally, when I asked for his autograph, he said, ‘No sweetheart you will sign autograph for the world’. Later I got to know that he has selected me for this film,’ she added.
Though Salman chose Zarine, she had to pass an audition test.
‘Veer’ is directed by Anil Sharma and produced by Vijay Dalani and Sunil A. Lulla. The makers kept Zarine’s name secret for a long time.
‘It’s a love story set in the backdrop of a war for independence. I play a Rajasthani princess,’ said Zarine.
Salman is known as an angry man, but Zarine got to know the caring and understanding side of his personality.
She has already bagged a few offers but she hasn’t signed any as she is waiting for the release of ‘Veer’ Jan 22.
