The other actresses of the film -- Deepika Padukone and Lara Dutta -- had a problem with the very mention of her inclusion and made their displeasure evident
The Katrina Kaif-Akshay Kumar pairing has proved successful time and again. And so, producer Sajid Nadiadwala and director Sajid Khan decided to get Kat on board for an item song in their film Laawaris song in Housefull.
But the other actresses of the filmu00a0-- Deepika Padukone and Lara Dutta -- had a problem with the very mention of her inclusion and made their displeasure evident. 
Merry-go-round
Katrina, too, was reluctant to do a song in a Deepika starrer, given the resentment the two actresses share over Ranbir Kapoor. Sushmita Sen was approached. The song was finally filmed on Jacqueline Fernandes.
A source reveals, "Katrina was offered the song but it became difficult to convince the other actresses to allow for her presence. Kat even heard the track and raved about how catchy it was. Since Katrina and Akshay have amazing on-screen chemistry it would have been a treat to have her along with Riteish and Arjun. It wasn't meant to be."
Ruling her out
But even the filmmakers didn't pursue the matter further as having Kat as an added attraction wasn't going down well with the three heroines. Especially, Deepika.u00a0u00a0 Kat and Dippy recently came face-to-face at a film studio but looked through each other. So to avoid unpleasantness on the set, the idea of having Kat on board Housefull was ultimately ruled out.
Director Sajid Khan denies Katrina was in the running for doing the song.
