Ali Abbas Zafar showers praises on Katrina Kaif!

Tiger Zinda Hai is one of the hotly anticipated films of the year. Before launching the trailer of the movie, the makers have revealed some posters which have got all the fans really excited about the film.

While everyone is praising Salman Khan for pulling off some high-octane sequences in the film, director Ali Abbas Zafar is all praises for the film’s lead actress Katrina Kaif. Ali says “actress Katrina Kaif really pushed herself for her role in the upcoming film”.


The director said in a statement, "Katrina has really pushed herself for the part. She has also gone the extra mile to train in important nuances like aggressive hand-to-hand combat. The action that Katrina has done looks very real onscreen, despite being mounted on a grand scale".

He further added, “Katrina is playing Zoya, a spy, and had to train under real intelligence agents for her role. It was essential to understand how such agents think and operate. So, we got Katrina to train with real agents, used their expertise and experience. For instance, as intelligence agents, you have to train in a certain way to keep your mental balance in direct situations."

Produced by Yash Raj Films, Tiger Zinda Hai is set to release on 22nd December.
