One of 8 sisters, Katrina Kaif is of mixed parentage - British mother and Kashmiri father. She began her career as a model and struggled to find her footing in Bollywood as her knowledge of Hindi was limited. She made a disastrous debut in Boom, but her fortunes steadily improved with time. On screen, her pairing with Akshay Kumar has been successful. After delivering 4 hits in 2007, Katrina became really popular. Movies like 'Race', 'Welcome', 'Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani', 'Raajneeti' have been among her many box-office successes.
Although 'Tees Maar Khan', the Farah Khan movie in which she starred opposite Akshay Kumar flopped, Katrina scored points for 'Sheila Ki Jawani', her wildly popular item number in it.
It was an open secret hat Katrina was dating Salman Khan, although neither party ever commented on it. The couple reportedly broke up in 2010 after Katrina allegedly became involved with Ranbir Kapoor, her co-star in 'Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani' and 'Raajneeti'. But Sallu and Kat are acting together again in Yash Raj Films' 'Ek Tha Tiger', which shows that they still share a friendship.
Drumroll please...the Dhoom 3 chick search is finally over! Katrina Kaif has won this round!
That’s right, looks like Katrina’s dream of starring opposite another Khan, aka Aamir Khan has come true, but are you surprised? After all she has become a personal favorite of the Yash Raj Banner.
Here’s director Vijay Krishna Acharya’s take on his leading lady, ‘After almost a year of searching for a new face for Dhoom 3 we were still unable to find the perfect debutante to play the lead role. We even reached out to international talent but were still unable to find someone who stood out. Once we decided to go with a known face and not pursue the newcomer route, Katrina was the obvious choice for all of us. We agree with Vijay, obvious it was!
Undoubtedly Yash Raj films are popular for taking on pretty faces, and since Katrina is flying high on the success of her last blockbusters hits, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara and Mere Brother Ki Dulhan, all eyes are now on Kat!
Dhoom 3 is set for a 2012 Christmas release and now for the big question, will Katrina Kaif sport a bikini in the movie? Or will she change the identity of a Dhoom 3 girl?
So did the directors make the right choice in Katrina Kaif? Or should they have crossed the ocean to find a girl in Hollywood?
