A 15-day old leopard was rescued by Van Vihar national park’s team near Devankhedi village near Bhopal on January 22nd and the cub was named Katrina because the villagers thought she was as beautiful and silky as Katrina Kaif.
When Katrina learnt about this she expressed her desire to adopt the cub. This was confirmed by Van Vihar’s assistant director AK Khare. He stated that she called him up on Friday afternoon and wanted to adopt the cub. However, he points out that the name of the cub, which is presently housed in their zoo, is spelt Catreena.
Katrina will have to pay Rs. 50, 000 annually for the leopard and fill up a form and sign it.
