If all had gone well David Dhawan’s Partner 2 bringing together Salman and Govinda to reprise their 2007 roles, would’ve started in August exactly two years after the first part of Partner.

However Anil Sharma’s time-consuming film Veer took longer to complete than expected, and the sequel to Partner has now been moved forward. A new schedule has to be worked out although the two actors’ dates were locked in!

Confirming this unfortunate development Partner’s producer Sohail Khan who is also Salman Khan’s co-star in Veer says, “Partner 2 is supposed to be start-to-finish film . We had blocked Salmanbhai and Govinda’s dates for 90 days at a stretch. However now Salmanbhai would be taking a break before going into Partner.”

But that apart there seems to be another reason for the film’s delay. Partner 2 is yet to find the right leading ladies. Sohail more or less confirms that Katrina Kaif and Lara Dutta won’t be part of the project.

Sanjay Gadhvi is all set to start his new film. This one will be produced by Studio 18 and star Imran Khan and Katrina Kaif, who’ve been teamed for the very first time. It’s a romantic/comedy and is aptly titled ‘7 Days In Paris’, since Paris happens to be one of the most romantic cities in the world.

Sanjay plans to begin filming in June-end/July, “because I want to capture the summer in Europe,” he reveals, “It’s a uniquely structured script, but I can’t reveal much at this stage.” Sanjay plans to wrap almost 85% of the film in Paris, while the remaining portions will be filmed in London and Mumbai.

The sprightly Katrina Kaif has graced the arm of many an older leading man, namely Akshay Kumar, Saif Ali Khan and Salman Khan. But the young 24-year-old is finally ditching the 40 plus actors for some younger leading men! She has just finished shooting for ‘Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahani’ with Ranbir Kapoor, and is being considered for Sanjay Gadhvi’s next project with Imran Khan. She’s also in New York with Neil Mukesh. Kaif will team up with Ranbir again for Prakah Jha’s ‘Rajniti’.

Kaif’s first successful movie was ‘Sarkar’ in 2005 where she appeared briefly as Abhishek Bachchan’s girlfriend. Then her next movie was with the 43-year-old Salman Khan in ‘Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya’ in 2006. After Khan (whom she’s been dating since 2003), Kaif did Namastey London with Akshay Kumar. In 2008 she appeared opposite yet another older man, Saif Ali Khan, in Race. With so many young men out there, maybe Kaif is finally sticking to her age group.

In a truly royal style, Bollywood diva Katrina Kaif doled out Rs 5 lakh among the crew members of Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani . The reason – she was “happy”. It was the last day of the shoot for Rajkumar Santoshi ’s ‘Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani’ at Film City and Katrina was in a generous mood.

It’s reported that immediately after the completion of the shoot, the actress went inside her vanity van and came out with wads of cash, which she distributed among all the unit members (even spotboys), as the actress was happy and wanted to share her happiness with others. The sweet gesture became sweeter when she personally went to meet everyone of the crew and gave the money.

Brit beauty Katrina Kaif is not only a delight to look at but also to work with. The gorgeous actress, known for her flawless face and figure wowed the veteran director Prakash Jha this time. Well, she drew admiration not for her looks but her commitment towards work.

Katrina is reportedly playing Sonia Gandhi in Prakash Jha’s upcoming ‘Rajniti’ and her poor Hindi diction had been a cause of great concern for the filmmaker. Recently during the shoots in Bhopal, the lady took the criticism in a positive way and rehearsed her lines so well that Jha was surprised at the way she spoke the language – without a trace of accent.

The saucy stunner has just a minuscule role in one of her upcoming movies. You expect to see a lot of Katrina Kaif in a film co-starring Akshay Kumar . But that may not happen in Blue , the Ashtavinayak production being directed by Anthony D’Souza .

While Lara Dutta is the film’s leading lady, Katrina will just have an item number and a few scenes in the flick. There have been rumours that her role has been extended to bring more star value to the project, but the actress has confirmed that she’s a very small role in ‘Blue’.

Katrina Kaif’s understanding of local politics has been honed thanks to the role she is playing in Prakash Jha’s film ‘Rajniti’.

Tossing aside the rumours of her character in the film being modeled on Sonia Gandhi, it must be said that Katrina Kaif has been preparing for her role determinedly. Donning a sari or no-make up look is superficial. Katrina is sinking her teeth deeper into her character this time. At least so she claims.
