While shooting for her upcoming film "New York," Katrina Kaif was shocked by what she learned about post 9/11 trauma, having not realized it before.
The actress was distraught by stories of what happened following the 9/11 attacks on America where many innocent people were detained and interrogated for being suspects in the attacks.
Katrina was immensely saddened when she visited Guantanamo Bay and learned about how the 9/11 detainee prisoners were treated while they lived there.
The actress said, "We are not making a documentary on 9/11 and so this film is highly entertaining yet very realistic." To shoot in a place that has been in revolving in the news and post-trauma of 9/11 was overwhelming for Katrina.
Kaif speaks on her experience, "I did not meet any person arrested and jailed in connection with the terror attacks. But I have heard stories about them when I was shooting there. Some most wanted criminals have stayed there", she said.
Despite this, the actress spoke on how the atmosphere and stories she heard really affected her and how she'll remember this experience she had for life. She says she found more value in her role as an actress when she saw that prisoner's were completely withdrawn from any form of entertainment.
