"Katrina Kaif has denied that she turned down a film from Wake Up Sid director Ayan Mukerjee because it stars her ex-boyfriend Ranbir Kapoor. The actress refused the role in the Karan Johan-produced movie because of a scheduling clash, Mumbai Mirror reports. &amp;quot;Katrina Kaif had to opt out of the film due to prior commitments,&amp;quot; her spokesperson told the paper. &amp;quot;Katrina was very keen on working with Karan Johar but couldn&amp;#039;t rework the dates to allot for the film, thanks to schedules already set in place.&amp;quot; The Tees Maar Khan actress added: &amp;quot;I didn&amp;#039;t have dates and thus couldn&amp;#039;t do Ayaan&amp;#039;s film. I prefer doing not more than two films in a year so that I can focus on those films completely.&amp;quot; Kaif dated Kapoor after they co-starred in Rajneeti following her split from on-off boyfriend Salman Khan. The couple ended their relationship of nearly 18 months after Kapoor was rumoured to be seeing model-turned-actress Nargis Fakhri, who appears with him in Rockstar. Kaif&amp;#039;s decision to drop out of Johar&amp;#039;s upcoming project ends media speculation over the casting of the female lead. Johar had also reportedly considered Kapoor&amp;#039;s ex-girlfriend Deepika Padukone for the role. Watch Katrina Kaif in Tees Maar Khan below:  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
