Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif visited the holy shrine of Salim Chishti in Fatehpur Sikri to pray for the success of her upcoming film "Fitoor". The actress, clad in a white salwar-kurta, made a flower and 'chaddar' offering at the dargah, near here. Kaif, 32, is a frequent visitor to the dargah, and Arshad Faridi, a descendent of Salim Chishti, said that it was her sixth trip to the shrine.

Next week’s big release Fitoor seems to have solved the pay-parity issue. Apparently, both Katrina and Aditya were paid  Rs 4 crore each for the film. Says a source, “Katrina is senior to Aditya Roy Kapur. So it was felt she should be paid on par with Adi. In fact, the actor should have  been paid much less. Since he is producer Siddharth Roy Kapur’s brother, he got the kind of money that he wouldn’t have otherwise demanded and got.”

The Fitoor director, Abhishek Kapoor has been paid more than what his lead pair was paid: Rs 10 crore! Says a trade insider, “Wonder what qualified Abhishek for the Rs 10 crore fee that he has demanded and got for FitoorRock On!! and Kai Po Che were hardly the kind of raging successes that would justify that kind of remuneration.”
