Zareen Khan admits Katrina Kaif comparison hurt her career after her debut in Veer

Zareen Khan has opened up about the tough times she faced after her Bollywood debut in ‘Veer’ with Salman Khan. While initially flattered by comparisons to Katrina Kaif, she later realized it harmed her career. People started seeing her as arrogant because of her connection to Salman. She felt lost and isolated in the industry.

During a conversation, Zareen shared her post-Veer experience in the industry and said, “Life after Veer was very bad for me, I got a lot of criticism for it. The film was so big, it still is a life-changing moment for me. Initially, I felt very happy that I was being compared to Katrina Kaif! She is so beautiful! But i think within the industry, things turned quite the opposite. For me, who used to be overweight, being compared to Katrina was huge, but it backfired badly. I was a lost child in the industry, and I didn’t know most people here. I only knew the names of the producers and directors not by their faces… but they started to feel I was arrogant because Salman Khan launched me.”
Sharing the details about the criticism she faced, the actress continued, “there was a time I was even scared to step out of my house because people would comment on my clothes. That comparison went in a very negative way. I was called overweight. What should I do? I was given so many names, that at one point, I wanted to just sit at home.”
