The two divas of B-Town Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone shared cold vibes during the opening ceremony at Indian Premier League 6. Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padkone and Katrina Kaif kept around 50,000 spectators at the brightly-lit Salt Lake stadium spellbound –
and millions more glued to TV sets in their drawing rooms – with their enthralling performances.
However, the two leading ladies were seen ignoring each other. Deepika, who was in a serious relationship with Ranbir, allegedly blames Katrina, who got friendly with the Kapoor lad while shooting ‘Ajab Prem ki Gazab Kahani’ for her break-up. And this is the reason she didn’t even look at Kat during the performance.
It is learnt that SRK had to arrange a separate plane for Katrina as she seemed uncomfortable accompanying her counterpart in the three-hour long journey. Deepika left for Kolkota late in the evening in a different charter plane.
“Both Katrina and Deepika didn’t interact with each other and preferred staying aloof. Even when they all took to the stage, Katrina was all by herself. But Shah Rukh Khan played the perfect host and friend. The star was seen making both feel comfortable,” a source revealed.
Sources added, “During the practice session, SRK made it a point to rehearse the steps separately with both the actresses. Even after their performances, Shah Rukh and Deepika were spotted giving bytes together while Katrina opted to do the same separately”.
