Katrina Kaif said, "I will be true to myself in that moment"
Katrina Kaif, who has been receiving praise for her performance in Sriram Raghavan's Merry Christmas, revealed in an interview with Pinkvilla that she is keen to play a negative role. She also mentioned that she doesn't connect with a negative character though she desires to play it. Katrina Kaif told Pinkvilla, "I think the best way to describe that is to say that I will be true to myself in that moment. In whatever films I have done, and will continue to do, I'll be true to myself. But also as a person you continuously change, right? Having said that, there are some things that are not necessarily connected to you, but are just your desires. Like for me, I would really love to play a negative character, but someone who we know the reason for being that. You know, not just negative without reason, someone we know, this is the reason they become that way."
Katrina Kaif also added that she wants to act in a period film as well. She told Pinkvilla, "So there are many things that I find exciting. I would love to do a period film. As an actor, I am excited to do that. But when you get drawn to a story, you have to judge each story as per that film when it comes at that moment. 'Is this a story that I want to tell? Do I want to be a part of it?"
Previously, Katrina Kaif shared her experience of working with Vijay Sethupathi in Merry Christmas when asked during an Ask me anything session. Katrina wrote, "Unique, unusual and very liberating. He is extremely comfortable in his own skin, no pretence in front of camera, only honesty."
