'Boom' won't be re-released: Katrina Kaif

Mumbai,March 22: Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif has dismissed reports that her debut film 'Boom' will be re-released in a DVD format with never-seen-before intimate scenes involving her and co-star Gulshan Grover.

"That is not true. The rights of the DVD are with the Hindujas and it remains with them. They are not distributing or re-distributing it,"Katrina told media.

Recently, a distributor claimed to be re-releasing 'Boom' with never seen before explicit footage featuring Katrina and Gulshan in UK, USA and the Gulf region saying that the Kaizad Gustad-directed movie did not get its due as it was released ahead of its time.

Speculations were rife that Katrina's lip-locking scenes with Gulshan were chopped off from the film's initial DVD on her beau Salman Khan's insistence.

Besides Gulshan and Katrina,'Boom'featured Amitabh Bachchan, Jackie Shroff, Padma Lakshmi, Madhu Sapre and Zeenat Aman. The film sought to exhibit the glamour world's connection with the underworld, but failed to make an impact on the box-office.

With gossip mills abuzz that she would be part of Aditya Chopra's'Dhoom 3'and Madhur Bhandarkar's 'Heroine', the 26-year-old actress said,"These are all rumours that go around and speculate. I have no idea about the film offers."

"I am working on 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara'and'Mere Brother Ki Dulhan'. Besides that there are no other films in hand,"added Katrina.

When asked about her sister Isabelle's acting debut in Bollywood, the'Rajneeti'star said,"She is interested in films but at the moment she is New York. We would see when she comes back."

In Zoya Akhtar's'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara'- a male bonding road story about three friends on the lines of 'Dil Chahta Hai'- Katrina will be seen alongside Hrithik Roshan, Abhay Deol, Farhan Akhtar and Kalki Koechlin. The film is slated to release on June 24.

'Mere Brother Ki Dulhan', a romantic comedy set around a love triangle, has Katrina sharing screen space with Imran Khan and Pakistani singer-actor Ali Zafar. The film is set to release in July this year.
