Zameer said, "Katrina Kaif is smart, she read the agreement, interpreted it properly and asked me a question. I could clarify it to her and she was completely satisfied. Another actress asked me about a particular paragraph in a contract saying 'I feel this is against me.' I read out that particular clause to her and explained that it is in her benefit. There was a well known actress from a TV serial, Balaji telefilms had good serials like 'Bade Acche Lagte Hai' 'Jodha Akbar' etc, the actress asked me if the contract could be interpreted under Indian penal code. I had to tell her that Indian penal code is for criminal offence, Indian contract act is for clauses in interest of the company because when you are acting in a movie I take your intellectual property rights. When I pay you your professional fee, I will take all rights possible so that I can exploit them."
