Katrina Kaif is no close to the typical Bollywood actress but still she has made a mark in Indians' hearts. Katrina Kaif, who has bagged a nomination at the upcoming 55th Filmfare Awards in best actor category for her role in New York, says she is happy with the nomination and won't mind if someone else wins the trophy. Katrina Kaif is no close to the typical Bollywood actress but still she has made a mark in Indians' hearts. Katrina Kaif, who has bagged a nomination at the upcoming 55th Filmfare Awards in best actor category for her role in New York, says she is happy with the nomination and won't mind if someone else wins the trophy. For once, diplomacy saw its defeat. Katrina Kaif surprised one and all when she chose Priyanka Chopra and Vidya Balan as the two actresses who deserved to get the Filmfare Best Actress award for 2009. "If I had to choose, apart from myself, I would choose Priyanka or Vidya. 'Kaminey' is one of my favourite films. And I loved Vidya in 'Paa'," said the current toast of B-Town while announcing the 55th Idea Filmfare Awards 2009. "But why can't I choose myself?" she added with a mischievous grin.

"Everyone wants to win, everyone wants to be successful. When you make a movie, you want it to be a hit and successful. When you are nominated of course you want to win. But honestly I am so used to not winning that just the nomination is enough," she said.

"I cannot complain as my awards have been so great from the audiences. I am happy just to be nominated. I would have a great time performing at the show. At the end of the day the jury gives these awards. Everyone's opinion is going to be different. You know more than the performances, for example, the best actress category, I always want the film to win... a film that I am in," she added.

Dressed in a figure-hugging brown knee-length dress, Katrina further said, "I am more than happy to be part of the event than winning any award. This is my second year at the Filmfare awards and I will be performing, too," said Katrina who was found adjusting her hair too very often.

She has teamed up with her favourite choreographer Ganesh Hegde to prepare for her performance. "We haven't confirmed on which songs I am going to perform. We have only confirmed the choreographer and he is Ganesh Hegde. He is one of my favourites so I think it's going to be a phenomenal act this time. I am really excited and we are going to start practice," said Katrina.

When queried whether her beau Salman Khan comfort her, since he has never got a single best actor award in his entire career of over two decades, and nor has she. While nodding in agreement vigorously, Katrina's spontaneous reaction to the organisers was - "So please give me an award," amidst uncontrollable giggles. She also added that in a new award category there should be an award for actors who never won an award and that she and Salman should be the winners in that category. The organisers couldn't help saying that they should have brought a trophy for Katrina on the day of announcement itself.
