MUMBAI: Since the last two years, there have been a lot of crossovers with our film artistes going to Hollywood to do a film and vice versa. The latest is that Caterina Lopez, cousin of actor-singer Jennifer Lopez, has bagged a role in a Bollywood film, Bhindi Bazaar Inc.

Sources say that the performer will feature in a song sequence for the film. "When they approached me for this sexy item number, I jumped up at it. And this gave me the perfect chance to come and work in Mumbai, which is the New York of India," Caterina is quoted to have revealed.

Bhindi Bazaar Inc, being shot in Mumbai, is set in the backdrop of pickpocketing that its director Ankush Bhatt feels is more heroic than a gangster killing with a gun.

The debutant actress said that Shah Rukh Khan was her favourite figure in the Indian cinema industry. "I think he is very charming and I‘ve had this big crush on him. I hope to meet him soon," she said.
