The trailor of the much awaited political thriller directed by Kabir Khan, starring Saif Ali Khan and Katrina Kaif – film ‘Phantom’ was launched at a gala event in Mumbai on July 25th. Present for the unveiling of the trailor were the two lead actors Saif and Katrina alongside director Kabir Khan and the film’s producer Sajid Nadiadwala.
While the men kept chose to sport smart casuals, Katrina glammed up in a blue colored Prabal Gurung suit – a stunning outfit that looked even better on Ms. Kaif. She kept the styling close to her comfort level i.e minimal make-up, hair simply worn down and signed off with classic ankle strap heels. A little more experimentation would have been good but still, Katrina wore the look well. She looked fabulous!

Interacting with the media, Ms. Kaif disclosed that the action scenes in the film were unlike those in Dhoom 3 and Ek Tha Tiger which were larger than life. Action was an integral part of Phantom and related to real life situations. Interestingly, she was keen on doing more action scenes in ‘Phantom’. She had insisted for a scene with a big gun and in fact, she wanted to do all the action sequences that Saif got to do!
