Actor Katrina Kaif is currently busy promoting her upcoming thriller film 'Merry Christmas.' Helmed by Sriram Raghavan, the film also stars South superstar Vijay Sethupathi in the lead role. On Thursday, during a press conference, Katrina shared her experience of working with the 'Jawan' actor for the first time.

She said, "Our first meeting was all three of us (Katrina, Vijay and Sriram Raghavan) together in a room and I had recently seen a picture of Vijay Sir and he had full white hair and a white beard. So when I entered into the office I didn't know what to expect and when I saw him like this I said "oh wow" that's a really different look. I was extremely excited to be working with Sriram Sir and Vijay Sir and as soon as we came together in a room, I think everyone came just as themselves and we instantly were able to connect. The minute Vijay sir started speaking about the scene it was fascinating, I just thought that this is the person who uses things in such a unique way and Sriram Sir has a very unique take on everything he does." Talking about 'Merry Christmas', the makers recently unveiled the film's official trailer which received good responses from the fans.

"I feel incredibly fortunate to have had that opportunity. He's a phenomenal director with an incredible mind, and being on his set is like entering a whole different world." "He's an amazing collaborator, both as a filmmaker and as a person. It was a very intense experience, especially doing the film in two languages. All of us have been very passionate about making this film from day 1 and are very excited for the release," she added.
