Katrina Kaif will act free for her make-up artist. Katrina signed up for her make-up artist Subhash Singh's production venture as the female lead. But something interesting about it is that Katrina will not charge a penny for the film. Subhash will produce this film which is the Hindi adaptation of the 2007 movie P.S. I Love You, starring Gerard Butler and Hilary Swank. Subhash has signed up Aziz Mirza to direct the movie. The movie is untitled as of now. Subhash has yet to find a male lead to star opposite Katrina. He had approached John (Abraham) and Ranbir (Kapoor), but they didn't agree. So, he is still looking. As of now, the female lead is confirmed; she will be played by Katrina; but the male lead is still on hold and the movie has to be on the floors by the end of 2012. Interestingly, this is not the first time Katrina is supporting her staff's professional endeavours. In 2011, she did a cameo for her hairdresser Ramila Manjrekar's production Main Krish Hoon. Unfortunately, the film is yet to see the light of day.
Meanwhile, Katrina has three big films to look forward to this year — Ek Tha Tiger with Salman Khan, Dhoom 3 with Aamir Khan and filmmaker Yash Chopra's untitled film opposite Shah Rukh Khan.
Will Katrina Kaif beat Kareena Kapoor? Karan Johar stands by Kareena, but it's Katrina for Ekta Kapoor. So, who will win in the war that follows? Buzz is that Ekta Kapoor and Karan Johar are having a slight disagreement over whom to cast as the leading lady for their next project. KJo stands by the 'in-house heroine of Dharma Productions', Kareena Kapoor. But Ekta is not very happy with his choice. Kareena might be the Numero Uno heroine in Bollywood, but she isn't hot enough for Ekta, who is vouching for haute and happening Katrina Kaif. Also, according to Ekta, Katrina has a good relationship with Lady Luck (that Kareena lacks?) that might work better for the project. Ekta doesn't mind working with Kareena. In fact, Kareena is even part of the sequel of Ekta Kapoor's Once Upon A Time In Mumbai. But the hotness quotient is not the sole reason for the difference in opinion. Both their calculating minds have come up with a new theory: they fear that Kareena's choc-a-block date diary might not have space for this one and Ekta knows that. With Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu, Heroine and her impending marriage plans, Kareena's plate seems to be too full for another job. Not an ideal choice for the ultra-professional and always-in-a-hurry lady Ekta Kapoor, who doesn't like lingering on a project for too long. On the other hand, Katrina is going to be available, once Ek Tha Tiger and her just-started film with Shahrukh Khan is done with. And the Chameli gal is riding pretty high on popular lists, so will be a selling point in any new movie for a while. So most probably it will be Katrina who will take the crown (or movie) this time.
Bollywood's International beauty Katrina is now on the seventh heaven after tasting every bit of success that's coming randomly on her way. After overshadowing several successful actresses in Bollywood, Katrina is now targeting the world's most beautiful and tinsel town's most successful darling Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Aishwarya's beauty is not only unbeatable as she is also the only Bollywood actress of the era who made her mark in Hollywood with her extraordinary acting skills. But Aishwarya's success and brand name have started to drop after she became the Bachchan bahu. An ignorant Aishwarya, who is happily enjoying her current motherhood phase, might not be even aware of her degrading market in the industry since she now has a major threat... that's Katrina Kaif. Katrina is definitely leaving no stone unturned to make her profound mark in Bollywood by even making her endless efforts to oust Aishwarya's brand name from the industry. Now when she is on the zenith of her success, she has bagged her lucky pair with Akshay Kumar. Katrina's back to back hits Rajneeti, Ajab Prem Ki Gajab Kahaani, Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara and item songs like Sheila ki Jawaani, Chikni Chameli has strengthened her Bollywood roots to such an extent that she finally got paired with the king Shahrukh Khan in an as-yet untitled Yash Raj production. Katrina also replaced Aishwarya and got immortalized as a barbie doll. Moreover, being a foreigner, Katrina too has a big name in Hollywood since she hails from London. Aishwarya needs to get serious now and hit back on Katrina's towering success. So it is hoped that Aishwarya will get back to work soon and save her drowning career in Bollywood.
Katrina happened to beat Aishwarya in Bollywood Star Rankings. There's been a changing of the guard going on in Bollywood over the last year or two, and never has it been more obvious than now. Old faces like Shahrukh Khan, Akshay Kumar, and Aishwarya Rai are being replaced by fresh talent in the form of Katrina Kaif, Ranbir Kapoor, and Ranveer Singh. While box office favorites from the 90s and 2000s like Salman Khan and Kareena Kapoor are still drawing big audiences, they are facing stiff competition from their younger counterparts. There may be some debate over who the top heroine really is but at least one group has done an authoritative survey and the results are pretty damning to the old guard of Bollywood actresses. The annual Ormax report ranks star quality and Bollywood's perennial queen Aishwarya Rai was thoroughly trounced by Katrina Kaif. 51% of survey takers chose Katrina as their top star, while Aishwarya picked up a mere 24%. The simplest explanation for this might be that while Katrina has been lighting up the screen all year and scoring routine hits, Aishwarya announced her first pregnancy and then hid herself away for the better part of 2011. But Katrina was walking all over Aishwarya even before Aishwarya's pregnancy break, and the two stars have been called equals in terms of star power and influence in the industry.
Katrina will no doubt see her popularity and influence rise even further this year. She's up for a variety of awards for her roles in Mere Brother Ki Dulhan and Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, while Aishwarya's only notable activity as of late was to be featured in Dabboo Ratnani's film, and even that "appearance" was the product of work done almost a year ago. Katrina has mega momentum in the industry these days, and Aishwarya and her contemporaries are going to have to work like crazy to re-establish themselves.
Katrina Kaif may have impressed even her critics with her hip shake in Agneepath item song Chikni Chameli but it wasn't an easy job. You may have noticed that she dances barefoot throughout the song. The only time her feet get some relief is when she swings on a chandelier. But that wasn't enough of a break for her feet. Dancing barefoot on cement took its toll on Katrina's pretty feet and she ended up with blisters midway through the sequence. Everyone thought she will ask for the shoot to be halted even if it meant pack up for co-actors Sanjay Dutt and Hrithik Roshan, but Katrina didn't do so. Despite the pain, she continued shooting as per schedule. The end result is really worth it. Nobody has doubt about it.
In Bhaskar Bollywood Awards Ceremony, versatile actor Ajay Devgn won the Abhineta No. 1 award and Katrina Kaif with highest number of votes in the category bagged the Abhinetri No. 1 award.
BollywoodLife readers have chosen Katrina Kaif's song Aaya re aaya from Salman Khan's film Bodyguard as their favourite. Katrina and the song garnered 45.92% - much more than anybody else.
So Katrina is undoubtedly one of the top heroines of Bollywood today. Let’s hope that she remains on top for at least another couple of years. Keep it up, Katrina!
