Katrina Kaif rose to the peak of her career within the last few years, and after doing a series of hit films with some of the biggest stars of the industry she got a lifetime opportunity when she bagged Yash Raj's film opposite Shah Rukh Khan.

Though she has worked with stars like Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar and Ranbir Kapoor, she was excited to team up with SRK with whom she was sharing screen space for the first time. The icing on the cake was the fact that her film with SRK is being directed by veteran Yash Chopra who she considers as an epitome of romance. 

Kat recently praised the filmmaker, "Yashji undoubtedly is the king of romance and I have always admired the way he presents his heroines. It was always a dream to work with him and the reality is even better," said Katrina who went on to praise her co-star SRK and his association with Yash, "Shah Rukh is a thorough gentleman and it is a delight to work with him. I admire the sheer energy, hard work and passion that he puts into his work. It is also nice that my first film with him is a Yash Chopra film; they have done some great work together," added Kat.
