In the world of glitz and glamour, competition among Bollywood’s leading ladies is inevitable. While the media and fans often speculate about the feud between actresses, some rivalries have gone beyond friendly competition to become legendary in the industry. Whether fueled by professional rivalries, personal differences, or simply the pressures of the spotlight, these feuds have captured the public’s attention for years. However, a feud between Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra went unnoticed.

In 2009, Kareena Kapoor caused a stir when she unexpectedly left the Screen Awards, abandoning her planned performance. To fill the gap, Arjun Rampal stepped in and delivered a stellar performance on Rock On, dancing alongside Bollywood beauties like Deepika Padukone, Bipasha Basu, Katrina Kaif, and Priyanka Chopra.

However, it wasn’t just Kareena’s sudden exit that grabbed attention. The real drama unfolded between Priyanka Chopra and Katrina Kaif, who reportedly clashed over who would be the “showstopper of the night.” Both actresses were vying to be the last one to enter the stage, a position considered the highlight of the performance. According to sources, this led to a heated argument, with the makers desperately trying to resolve the issue.

In the end, Katrina Kaif held her ground and refused to compromise, but Priyanka, known for her grace under pressure, eventually gave in. She allowed Katrina to take the coveted spot and become the showstopper of the night, ending the drama on a more peaceful note.

The publication cited a source close to the screen awards revealed, “Both Priyanka and Katrina had to step on the stage along with Bipasha and Deepika while Arjun Rampal waited for them. Priyanka did not like it and stood her ground. There was huge chaos all around and the organisers didn’t know what to do.”

“However, better sense prevailed, and Priyanka decided to step aside and let Katrina enter last. If Priyanka hadn’t agreed to step aside Arjun’s act would have gone for a toss. One must say that Priyanka was magnanimous. The organizers were shocked when they learnt about Priyanka and Katrina’s fight,” the source added.

Later, when Katrina Kaif was asked about her showdown with Priyanka Chopra, she said, “Frankly, I don’t care about such things. And don’t be silly. I was always supposed to enter last and that’s what I did.”

However, both Katrina Kaif and Priyanka Chopra have since moved on and are now cordial to each other. As with most rumors in Bollywood, the reports about their supposed fight faded into obscurity as they continued to focus on their respective careers.
