Salman Khan is well-known for his generosity but not many people know that his much-awaited forthcoming venture ‘Veer' was offered to his ladylove Katrina Kaif before it went to the kitty of newcomer Zarine Khan. Now if sources are to be believed, the pretty new face Zarine had been an assistant to Katrina Kaif for quite a long time.

Zarine has been paired opposite Salman and plays the pivotal role of Princess Yashodhara.

Reliable source reveal, "Yes, Zarine was offered the role after Katrina refused, due to date problems. Zarine had been an assistant to Kats for a while and now she is being launched by Salman."

Now that's what you call taking sweet revenge from Kats. What do you say Salman? And wonder what Katrina too has to say on that?
