Kat on a ‘hot’ tin roof

Katrina Kaif’s sizzling number Sexy lady in her recently-released film, and now an impending item song in the sporty film Blue have given her a sensuous image, but she’s surprisingly uncomfortable with it. “I want to retain the image of the girl next door. I don’t want the hot image. Even in Sexy lady I’m fully clothed. I’m still the girl next door. It’s not the conventionally sexy kind of song,” says Katrina. In her recent film, where she’s pitched for the sensuous sweepstakes against Bipasha Basu and Sameera Reddy, Katrina pulled out all the stops to erase the homely image. But, she says, “I don’t think so. Everything in the film looks larger-than-life, very fulsome, urgent and exaggerated. The actors are styled accordingly. I haven’t done anything like it. Everyone’s talking about it. I guess that’s a good sign.” Katrina is equally reluctant to accept she's doing the most expensive item song ever in Blue. “I wouldn’t know about how expensive it is, but I’m doing a special appearance in Blue ,” she explains.
