According to reports, the 31-year-old actress, with roots in London, will play an Indian professor at a Chinese university, whereas Chan will be seen as a Chinese archaeologist who enlists her help to unearth treasures from the Magadha era.
However, Katrina's spokesperson shared that the actress is yet to decide.
"Katrina is yet to take a decision on the film. Nothing is confirmed as of yet," her spokesperson said in a statement.
Earlier, there were reports that Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan was to star in the film, which will be directed by Stanley Tong. Later, the "PK" star denied the reports and said his commitment towards "Dangal" has left him no time for another project. Meanwhile, Katrina has Bollywood films like "Fitoor" and "Jagga Jasoos" in her kitty.
