started modeling accidentally when she was in Hawaii at the tender age of
14, when she was approached for a jewelery campaign. Thereafter she
continued modeling in London.
 |  |
Continuing to model was the reason she
got her break in a Bollywood movie "Boom" offered by none other than
film-maker Kaizad Gustad.
She was flooded with modeling assignments the minute she set her foot on
Indian soil, especially with her innocent expressive face, hour-glass
figure, and drop-dead gorgeous looks.
Professionally she started off as a model with photographer Atul Kasbekar,
and upon being accepted, she received offers from LG, Cola, Fevicol, Lakme,
& Veet. It was the Lakme commercial that got her noticed. She retained
Matrix as her Manager to accept work on her behalf and at the price she
deserved.
Moving to different culture and country was not much of a culture shock for
her, as she states that no matter where you come from, the bottom line is
that everyone wants to be loved, respected, and cared for.
Unlike other artistes from foreign lands, Katrina did not experience any
difficulties in getting a visa nor of getting it extended in India.
Although linguistically challenged, Katrina puts on a bold face and states
that other Bollywood artistes like Sridevi, who did not know Hindi, did get
offers from Bollywood film-makers, and she is no different. She is taking
Hindi and dancing lessons to fit in with the Bollywood culture. She likes to
display a picture of her learning Kathak dancing where she used to dance 7
hours a day non-stop.
Despite of her soft gorgeous looks, she is not easily intimidated, but
admits that she is very emotional, almost an incurable romantic, wears
comfortable non-revealing clothes when at home, hates to do her hair, and
above all dislikes make-up. Admitting to being lonely in the beginning, but
now has several nice friends who she can hang out with.
Although her first movie "Boom" was panned by the critics and shunned by the
audiences, two other Telegu movies "Malliswari" and "Pidugu" did get her
noticed. She grossed Rs.70 lakhs for Malliswari - making her top the list of
the highest paid actresses during a South Indian movie debut.
Not done with South Indian movies, she has been signed in a Tamil movie
"Bheema" opposite National Award Winner Vikram.
She has received decent reviews for her part in "Maine Pyar Kyon Kiya", as
well as a brief appearance in "Sarrkar". Recently In 2006 katrina kaif has
given stunning performnce in her movie called "Hum Ko Deewana Kar Gaye".
Katrina has now made Bombay her base, and doesn't mind singing and dancing
around trees while she's at it, and is determined to make it big in
Bollywood.

Katrina sent Shaana back to change her lipstick shade only because it was
similar to hers. On several occasions she gave Shaana a lot of grief."
