Amrita Rao fills in for Katrina Kaif in 'Life Partner'

Abbas Mustan wanted to pair Katrina Kaif in an extended cameo with Govinda in their debut production Life Partner but Kaif insisted on taking her London family vacation so, Amrita Rao took her place.

Director Rumi Jaffery and the Abbas Mustan had to do with a replacement as the film's release date, August 14, is around the corner and waiting for a date from Katrina wasn't an option.

Katrina earlier featured in Abbas-Mustan's blockbuster thriller Race. Amrita Rao filmed her extended cameo role over the weekend.

Govinda plays a divorce lawyer in the Life Partner. The other pairs in the film are Fardeen Khan - Genelia D'Souza and Tusshar Kapoor - Prachi Desai.

The film is about friendship and relationships before marriage. It goes on to explore how the going gets tough after a relationship turns into a commitment post wedding.

Amrita Rao's most recent release was Shortkut - The Con Is On, with co-star Akshaye Khanna. She made waves in the film with her bold makeover. She will be seen in an even hotter look in her cameo opposite Govinda.

Talking about her sizzling looks, Rao, 28, says

"It's always a pleasure working with filmmakers of Abbas-Mustan caliber. And, as for the looks, well you can only expect the hottest from their films, right?"
