Katrina Kaif got trolled for her expressions while giving Zareen Khan an autograph; Veer actor clarifies why she posted video that stirred controversy

Zareen continued, “In the video, I’m smiling from ear-to-ear like a fool. Katrina is a superstar. In those days, actors weren’t as comfortable as they are now with blending in with their fans. It wasn’t like everybody had access to stars earlier, so we can’t expect to be treated like best friends. I was a fan, and she was the star. Maybe something was going on in her mind that we aren’t aware of. It’s only others who are pointing out her expression, but for me, it was a special moment. If Katrina got trolled, so did I.”

Zareen said that she was accused of sharing the video out of spite for Katrina. She said that she would never do something like that. “I’m not a vicious person. If I was, I would probably be more successful. She might have had 50 other things on her mind, she might have signed so many autographs already. Who knows? Sometimes, you’re not in a good mood because of some personal issues. I don’t think there was anything negative.”

Sharing the video on Instagram earlier in July, Zareen had written on Instagram, “Came across this video and the memory is still so fresh. I clearly remember this moment… it’s from the premiere of the movie RACE. Thanks to a friend who got us passes, we were able to experience the magic firsthand. At that point, I was just a wide-eyed fan, never imagining I’d one day be a part of the film industry. But Look at how happy I am in this video, a total fangirl… grinning from ear to ear, getting an autograph from the woman I thought was and is breathtakingly beautiful!”

Zareen debuted with the film Veer, starring Salman Khan and directed by Anil Sharma. She went on to star in the erotic thriller Hate Story 2, and the comedy film Housefull 2.
