Katrina Kaif’s performance in Kabir Khan’s directorial New York has truly been one of the finest in her career.

In a recent interview, the actress revealed that she initially didn’t want to be a part of the film and it was Salman Khan who encouraged her to join it.

She said, "When I first
heard the film, I thought he offered me kind of
a small film which was more artsy and had no
song and dance. I thought Kabir Khan was like
a documentary filmmaker. After taking away a
big commercial film like Bachna Ae Haseeno, he gave me this art film, New York. And I was not very happy about it.”

She further added, “I was angsty in my heart."

Directed by Kabir Khan, the film released on June 26, 2009. It featured Katrina, John Abraham and Neil Nitin Mukesh in the lead.

Katrina was last seen in Sriram Raghavan’s Merry Christmas which released on January 12.
