As we know, she is part of the 'Tiger' franchise from the beginning. Katrina is looking more and more dashing in terms of glamour in songs or kicking ass in fight sequences. She plays the role of Zoya who is a Pakistani spy who falls in love with an Indian agent named Avinash Singh Rathore aka Tiger.
What attracted a lot of people in the trailer was Katrina's fight scene in nothing but a towel. It was shot at a Turkish hammam. Michelle Lee who worked with top Hollywood actors has worked in 'Tiger 3'. Michelle isn't surprised that the towel fight set-piece has become one of the biggest talking points from the Tiger 3 trailer! She reveals Katrina and she had rehearsed for over 2 weeks before they shot the sequence!
She says, "I'm not surprised. I thought it was pretty epic when we were shooting it. We learned and practiced the fight for a couple weeks and then shot it. The set design was absolutely gorgeous and the fight was really fun to do. It was wonderful being on an International film." Adding to that she stated, "Katrina was as graceful and professional as can be. She worked really hard on getting the movements precise and making sure all the movements flow. It was clear she had experience in choreography so it was super easy to work with her. We worked up a sweat!"
Talking about fighting in a towel, he said, "One of the main challenges was definitely the wardrobe! Our towels needed to stay in the proper place and with so much movement and fight choreography, it was definitely a challenge. We ended up having the towels sewn closed at certain points and that helped a lot. Another challenge was striking each other in the perfect amount of distance so that it looks close enough to be dangerous and strong but far enough to not actually hurt each other. Can you imagine if I actually got her?! But I'm a professional lol. So things went smoothly, neither of us got hit so we just had to make it work for the camera."
