Recent reports suggesting that Katrina Kaif is planning an acting comeback and exploring opportunities in the OTT space appear to be unfounded, according to a well-placed industry source, the claims were dismissed as inaccurate. Katrina Kaif has been enjoying her motherhood phase with son Vihaan Kaushal, the actress often shares cute glimpses of her vacation and bonding time.
Earlier this week, reports claimed that Katrina, who reportedly embraced motherhood in 2025, had resumed reading scripts and was considering projects for a possible return to acting in the second half of 2027. The reports further suggested that the actor was open to exploring streaming platforms and could make her OTT debut after years of focusing primarily on theatrical releases.
However, an industry insider has now firmly dismissed those claims, calling them "completely inaccurate and misleading."
"There is absolutely no truth to the claims being made about Katrina Kaif's future acting plans," the source said. "The report is based entirely on speculation and misinformation, with no verification."
The clarification comes amid growing curiosity about Katrina's professional future. The actor has maintained a relatively low profile in recent months, leading to frequent speculation about her next career move. Reports about a possible comeback quickly gained traction online, with many fans expressing excitement over the prospect of seeing her return to the screen and potentially venture into the digital space.
The original report had claimed that Katrina was actively evaluating scripts and searching for "the right project" before making a decision. It also suggested that she was open to working on streaming content, a move that would mark her first-ever OTT project.
However, the latest clarification indicates that there are currently no confirmed plans regarding a comeback, digital debut, or any upcoming acting project. The source stressed that any reports suggesting otherwise are not based on verified information.
Katrina remains one of Bollywood's most popular stars and continues to command significant public interest, both for her film career and her entrepreneurial ventures. Apart from acting, she is also the founder of a successful beauty brand, which has expanded its presence in the Indian cosmetics market over the years.
Given her immense fan following, speculation surrounding her next move is not uncommon. However, the source's statement makes it clear that reports about her alleged OTT debut and acting comeback should be treated as rumours rather than confirmed developments.
For now, neither Katrina nor her team has made any official announcement regarding future acting assignments. Until a formal confirmation emerges, reports about her return to films or entry into the streaming space remain purely speculative.
