Film promotions these days are incomplete without the star cast making an appearance on popular reality shows. That is what Katrina Kaif and Saif Ali Khan have been busy doing to spread the word about their upcoming film, Phantom. However, on Sunday, when the duo visited the set of the music reality show,  Indian Idol Junior, Kat seemed a tad upset. Sources say the actress was unhappy about not being clued in about the flow of the shoot.

A unit hand says, “They were supposed to arrive by 4pm and begin the shoot at 6pm. However, the schedule was advanced to morning since it was Saif ’s birthday that day and he wanted to spend the evening with his family. We made arrangements for the shoot to commence at 10am, but it started nearly 90 minutes later as soon as Saif arrived on the set. Katrina, on the other hand, reached a bit late.”

Since Kat walked in late, she could not be informed about the flow of the shoot. The actress is said to have refused to do a gig as she was not briefed about it beforehand. “She was not present when we started shooting, so we could not tell her about it. The gig required her to say yes to a question that was asked to her, but she didn’t want to do it. She even asked the crew members to stop filming for about 20 minutes and asked for a proper briefing as a condition to resume the shoot. Finally, it all ended well,” adds the source.

Kat denies the buzz and says, “I was always meant to come a little later than Saif since I had another shoot, but I was not upset at all.”
