Katrina Kaif | From a non-Hindi speaking struggler to one of the biggest superstars of Bollywood
Katrina Kaif, one of the most popular, gorgeous, and ravishing actresses of Bollywood, turns 34 today. She was born in Hong Kong, raised in London and it was ‘Aamchi Mumbai’ where she marked herself as a successful actress and attracted a global fan following. Katrina’s career graph in Bollywood has seen crests and troughs. Being an outsider who fumbled in speaking Hindi, it is only her hard-work, determination, perseverance and resilience that has borne the fruit of success and won her applause from the audience, filmmakers and critics alike.
Katrina didn’t have the advantage of hailing from a celebrity family or a taste of stardom prior to landing in India. Yet she didn’t let any of these stymie her prospects as a top Bollywood actress.
1) Katrina has the spunk and the ebullience in her that is indispensable for being a good actress.
2) Her radiant beauty, charisma and drop-dead gorgeous appeal send flutters in the hearts of her fans.

3) From her Bollywood debut in the nondescript and sleazy movie ‘Boom’, which crashed at the box office, to box office hits like Namastey London and Dhoom 3, Katrina has walked a long way, improvised her acting and has never looked back since then.
4) Katrina knows that there are no shortcuts in show business. She learned Hindi pronunciation and never looked for an underhand alternative to hard-work.
5) She has the drive, the vigor and the immense passion for succeeding, and above all a belief in herself because of which she left the ramps of fashion shows in Europe and came to a new country as a struggler to try her fortunes.
