Exclusive: Kangana Ranaut blames Salman Khan for Katti Batti’s flop

Does Kangana Ranaut blame Salman Khan for the fiasco that was Katti Batti? Apparently, it was Salman Khan who recommended the film to Kangana, adding that it was a tailormade role for her. The actress had earlier rejected the film when director Nikhil Advani had approached her with the script. But since Salman was working with Nikhil (on Hero), he recommended the role and the film strongly to Kangana.

That’s how the Queen actress came into the picture. With Katti Batti proving to be a disaster at the box office, the blame game seems to have started. Apparently, Kangana’s team believes Salman put her into the situation. But Salman was quick to clarify that he had recommended that she listen to the script, and that the decision to do the film ultimately was entirely hers.

Says a close friend of the superstar, “Salman never asked her to do the film. He just suggested that she give Nikhil time to narrate the script to her. The decision to do Katti Batti was Kangana’s. And if she is blaming Salman for its disaster, then who does she blame for Rajjo and Revolver Rani?” Needless to say that for Salman, the entire episode has left a bitter taste in the mouth.
