Katrina Kaif and John Abraham might be big stars in India. But they are nobodies in New York. This they realized only a while ago. Interestingly these two are acting in a movie called New York. Such is the irony of the situation. The two were denied entry to a nightclub in New York when they were trying to join a party for a crew member on their movie New York.

A source says, “When they were stopped at the nightclub, they tried to reason with the bouncers that they were well known and respected people from India. John and Katrina told them that they were film stars from India but the bouncers only stared at them. The bouncers had no clue what John and Katrina were talking about.” But the experience hasn’t stopped Katrina to encourage her sister to study in New York.

The buzz is that she has been encouraging her sister, Isabelle Kaif who wishes to join the industry in a year or two, to sign up at the Lee Strasberg Theatre School in New York. And despite her wooden acting in all her films, things in India have been going great. She’s been nominated for a Best Indian Award along with others such as Manmohan Singh and Aamir Khan. She thinks it’s a great honour to be considered to be in the same league as great achievers. Well, in spite of everything, Kat sure has lots of reasons to smile about!
