Friends have a unique way of giving compliments to each other but Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan had in a novel way complimented his co-star Katrina Kaif, who he had worked with, in two films so far, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara and Bang Bang.
Speaking at the Hindustan Times Mint Asia Leadership Summit in Singapore in September 2019, Hrithik had said that Katrina works like a "mazdoor" (labourer).
While Hrithik meant it as a compliment, he said Katrina did take it as an insult. In the summit, Hrithik had also revealed why he uses that term for his co-star.
He had said, "This is something that I’ve always told Katrina, which she kind of takes as an insult, but which I mean as an incredibly well-intentioned compliment. I regard Katrina as a 'mazdoor'; she is a labourer, she is a worker. She is one of the best labourers and workers that I’ve ever come across."
Hrithik had further said, "I'm telling you, deep inside Katrina is a ‘mazdoor’; she just happens to be beautiful and hot and all of those things. Those are just the decorations, but deep inside, she is a worker. Having said that, she is so super talented, it becomes very easy for her, it becomes very easy for me when I’m working with her."
This is not the first time that Katrina was lauded for having a strong work ethic. Her Fitoor co-star Tabu had also said, "Katrina is the most hard-working actress I have ever met, seen, and worked with. I had three days to prepare... the involvement with which she works is amazing.”
On the work front, Katrina will be next seen in Sooryavanshi with Akshay Kumar. The film was supposed to release in March but was indefinitely delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
