Mumbai, November 3: Katrina Kaif, who is essaying the role of an actor in "Zero", credits director Aanand L Rai for taking her on an unexpected journey.

In the director's next "Zero", Katrina plays the role of an actor and she says the character is nothing what she is in real life. "The profession is the same, I am playing an actor in the film and I am actor in real life. The personality and the character is not at all like me. I am a very behaved and sensible person and this character's name is Babita in the film," she said at the film's trailer launch on Friday.

This is the first time Katrina has teamed up with Rai and she said she had an incredible experience working with him. "The journey he me took on was really unexpected for and mostly importantly new for me. Everyday I felt I am learning something new. Everyday I felt I was scared and what are we doing, what is Aanand sir doing with me? And do I trust him or not trust him? At least he was there with me. Zero Trailer: Shah Rukh Khan as Bauua Singh Spells Magic But Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma Steal The Show Too - Watch Video.
