So she thinks she’s young, as in, in her 20s. Smell the coffee rosy-cheeked Katrina Kaif! You are no spring chicken either. The actress has recently given a statement suggesting she would like to work opposite male co-stars who are her age, not way older than her. This has been taken as a remark against all the Khans of Bollywood. Mind you, there was a time when she was romantically linked with Salman Khan.

Hmm … Katrina K is in her 30s and a majority of the ‘young’ male Bollywood leading men these days, apart from Ranbir Kapoor, are in their 20s (Varun Dhawan, Arjun Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Sidhharth Malhotra etc). Is she sending out a signal that she’s only going to work with Ranbir K?
