'Baar Baar Dekho' came at a very important time for Katrina Kaif as she struggled with her break up with actor Ranbir Kapoor. Kat plays Diya, Sidharth Malhotra's love interest in the movie that shows their relationship up and close in a period of three decades. A lot rides on 'BBD' with her past two 'Phantom' and 'Fitoor' not faring well. "I wasn't sure I gave my 100 per cent to those two movies, therefore I came into 'Baar Baar Dekho' with complete focus and the belief of my director Nithya Mehra."
Talking about Mehra, she said, "She knows how to handle people and I grew to like her. I also think that women directors write the best woman characters as there is the familiarity of what is going on in a girl's head." The movie is produced by powerhouses; Karan Johar's Dharma Productions, Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani's Excel Entertainment and Eros Entertainment.
