Katrina Kaif sounds anything but nervous as she described the ‘crazy’ stunts she pulled off on an Abu Dhabi highway, in between luxuriating in the desert sands of Qasr Al Sarb in the Rub Al Khali or The Empty Quarter of Liwa. See it.... Directed by Siddharth Anand, ‘Bang Bang’ also stars Hrithik Roshan in the lead and is the official remake of the Tom Cruise-Cameron Diaz starrer, ‘Knight and Day’.
