Katrina Kaif opts out of Anurag Basu's film with Ranbir Kapoor after she discovers that Priyanka Chopra is co-starring in it
Katrina and Priyanka Chopra cat fight - The WAR is ON
A little bit of History would help : Priyanka Chopra and Ranbir Kapoor were shooting in New York for Anjaana-Anjaani. They were both warming up towards each other because of their newly single status as Ranbir had broken up with Deepika and Priyanka was no longer seeing Shahid. Before things could get hot, Katrina Kaif landed in New York to declare her place in his life. Priyanka backed away from Ranbir. It was a very hush-hush trip and only Priyanka caught wind of it. Katrina got scared because of that. When the unit returned to Mumbai, the news of her visit spread and Katrina thinks Priyanka has spread the news.
Now, both the actresses cannot stand each other. Katrina wants to confront Priyanka about the whole thing. Priyanka couldn’t be less bothered because she has more important things to do than gossip about Katrina and Ranbir.
Now back to recent drama .. Although it appears all polished behavior from Katrina and Priyanka.. there is now a deep rivalry between the two.
What Katrina says -
Only solo-heroine films for Katrina Kaif - at least for now. That's what the actress has decided after a string of successes from Namaste London to Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani.
Soon after reports that Katrina had agreed to be part of a film which stars Ranbir Kapoor and Priyanka Chopra, comes news that she has opted out of the Anurag Basu film.
Priyanka Chopra
Explaining the rationale of her decision, a close friend of the actress says, "When Katrina agreed to do Anurag Basu's film with Ranbir, no mention was made of another heroine, and certainly not of Priyanka. However, when word about this reached her, she found the whole idea of the credit titles reading 'Ranbir-Katrina-Priyanka' too gimmicky. Not that she has anything against Priyanka or any other co-star."
But the more immediate reason for Katrina could be that she has finally acquired the rights to produce the remake of a French film - she's been after it for almost a year now and wants to immediately allot time for this pet project.
Having signed Dostana 2 and Zoya Akhtar's next, besides Farah Khan's Tees Maar Khan (for which she's shooting at the moment), the only way she could accommodate this remake was to refuse any other projects this year.

Katrina doesn't deny she has decided to do only solo-heroine films. "I am not saying I won't do films with other leading ladies, but for now, I'm happy in the space I am. Why should I unnecessarily rock the boat? And yes, I am finally about to lock the deal to produce my film. It's a fabulous role and I've been angling for the remake rights for quite some time. I'd like to get down to it as soon as possible."
The remake of the French film will feature Katrina as a scheming gold-digger. She has apparently been pining to play a grey role for some time now.
