Kabir Khan met Salman Khan during the Kabul Express
Recalling that incident, Kabir Khan revealed that New York was going to be Katrina Kaif’s first Yash Raj film and according to the director, she was a little disappointed by the film when she heard about it. He added, “She was wanting to hear maybe a love story, song, and dance, and she was like ‘what kind of film is this?'”
In the same interview, Kabir revealed that he met Salman Khan for the first when he was making Kabul Express. It was just that one meet that helped him cast Katrina in New York. Kabir quipped that those days the Merry Christmas actress was seeing the Wanted star.
Recalling the episode, Kabir revealed, “Salman asked her ‘how was the meeting?’ She said ‘there is a new filmmaker who has made one film and he offered me a film. It’s interesting but I don’t know’. Salman asked ‘who is the filmmaker?’ so she said ‘There’s this guy called Kabir Khan’. So apparently, Salman said ‘aankh band karke picture sign kar lo, I have met the boy’.
In yet another interesting revelation Kabir Khan revealed that they shot the film for 100 days in New York and the whole set-up was quite new for Katrina Kaif. He added that for a long time when she came on the set, the actress kept calling Kabir "Sir" to which he finally had to tell her, “yaar, your boyfriend is four years older than me, please don’t call me sir.”
