Til date, the Bollywood audience has only seen Katrina is a cheerful and sexy avatar however Katrina's next release is quite the opposite. In Prakash Jha's Rajneeti, Katrina plays a serious role of a determined politician.


The political saga is said to have an item number in the movie. However Jha does not want Katrina to be apart of the glam song simply because Kat's role in the movie is serious. Jha feels is he added Katrina to the song the seriousness of her character will diminish. However on the other end, Katrina is quite interested in being apart of the song!


Rajneeti also stars Ranbir Kapoor, Ajay Devgan, Arjun Rampal and Nana Patekar. The venture is expected to release sometime in 2010!
