Ma'am I'm sorry. Katrina Kaif can play PT Usha better than PT Usha can play herself. You'll realise in the climax when there is an important race and they close up on Katrina's face for 10 mins as she's waiting for the whistle.

Who else can play a dusky south indian athlete better than the fairest woman in Bollywood. https://t.co/RHc4Rv28zK

There is rumour going around that Katrina Kaif might act as PT Usha in a biopic, that's perhaps the worst thing to happen to PT Usha after she came 4th in the Los Angeles Olympics in 1984

Now, imagine if Katrina's name actually comes through for playing the role. And in a year or so, she nails her performance in the film. Then, it will be amazing to go back to all these jokes and the ones who cracked them. We say, go, Katrina.
