Katrina Kaif spends the night at Ranbir’s house

Katrina Kaif and Ranbir Kapoor's secret affair is finally out in the open, thereby establishing the lady's fall out with Salman Khan.

Katrina and Ranbir were amongst the guests who attended Karan Johar's party at Hotel Four Season's in Mumbai on Tuesday night. The party got over late but for Ranbir and Kat it continued till the wee hours of morning.

The two stars left from the venue in their respective cars but reached the same destination - Ranbir's Bandra residence. Our photographer, who was following both the cars, saw Kat's car parked in Ranbir's garage. We also hear that Kat didn't leave till as late at 7am in the morning.

Just a few days back, there were reports floating about Ranbir spending the night at Katrina's residence very often. It was also reported that Ranbir was at Kat's house the night before the IT raid took place. Unlike Shahid, who was present at Priyanka's house the same day during the raids, Ranbir was just lucky enough to leave Kat's house before officials knocked on the door.

However, now that everybody knows of their clandestine affair, we just hope that Ranbir and Katrina don't hide their relationship behind the 'just good friends' cover up anymore. Ab bacha kya?

Salman khan gets advance birth day gift from Katrina Kaif,

Now this is news! When everybody is speculating whether there is a strain in the friendship between Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif especially after it was reported that the macho Bollywood actor's digs about Ranbir Kapoor did not go down too well with Kat, TOI spotted Sallu's ex-flame paying him a visit on Saturday night.

Kat drove into Salman's Galaxy pad in Bandstand (Bandra) late evening and even stayed there for at least one-and-a-half hours bonding with him as well as his family members. We hear that she was there to wish him in advance for his brithday. Family sources tell us that Salman was very friendly with Kat and vice versa and they had a blast chatting up after ages as both were busy with their respective shooting commitments. "Kat had some food at Salman's pad and caught up on some hearty conversation.

By the way they were interacting with each other, nothing seems to be wrong between the relationship that they have been sharing. Kat continues to be close to the entire Khan family and considers Salman to be her advisor and, most importantly, a very close friend. Salman, too, is quite fond of her. They hugged each other and spent at least one hour with just each other." What's also interesting is that Salman even escorted Kat all the way to her car when she was leaving and waited at the door waving to her till her car zoomed away.

Akshay Kumar 'was elbowed' by Katrina Kaif

The actors and director are currently promoting the film in Delhi and gave an impromptu performance of one of the dance numbers.

Katrina Kaif wants Charlie's Angels type role

Katrina Kaif has revealed that she has three dream genres for acting roles in mind, one of which is a big Hollywood action film.

The actress said the first on her list is a period film, which she would want to follow with a romantic tragedy like Devdas.

Kaif added that big Hollywood action roles, the type usually played by Angelina Jolie or Cameron Diaz, sit third on her list.

"I want to do an action film like Salt or Charlie's Angels," she said.

The actress, who has starred opposite many of Bollywood’s leading men, said there is one she particularly wants to work with.

"I want to team up with Aamir [Khan]. In the last few films, the way he has romanced on screen I loved, especially in Ghajini," she added.

Kat in the item number league

Now Katrina Kaif has joined them! Her 'Sheila ki jawani' is the latest in a long line of raunchy numbers that have made top mainstream actresses shed their inhibitions to set the adrenaline pumping. Why, Madhuri Dixit and Aishwarya Rai have done it too.

" Sheila Ki Jawani" from Farah Khan's third directorial venture " Tees Maar Khan" has become quite popular even before the song was officially released. Its spicy lyrics and Katrina's sexy moves have struck a chord with the audience and the electrifying song is being frequently played on radio stations and television channels.

The lyrics in these item numbers are catchy - and they don't always make sense even if they are provocative.

"Lyrics are lyrics. No one should take them literally and seriously and analyse them in songs like these. If you believe you are doing something clean and keeping yourself in the boundaries of dignity, then the lyrics and mood of the song don't matter and you feel comfortable while performing it," Katrina told us.

"I enjoy my dancing. I don't know how technically good I am, but I like doing it and I enjoyed it," she added.

"Sheila ki jawani" is on its way to giving competition to this year's most popular number "Munni badnaam hui" from "Dabangg". The song was picturised on Malaika Arora who earlier sizzled on the screen in songs like "Chhaiyan chhaiyan" and "Mahi we".

Item numbers are Hindi films' way of spicing up a film. Among mainstream actresses, it was Bollywood's dancing queen Madhuri Dixit who became perhaps the first to set the temperatures soaring with the sensuous item number "Choli ke peeche kya hai".

Later from Shilpa Shetty to  Aishwarya Rai and from Kareena Kapoor to Priyanka Chopra, everyone followed suit.

"Earlier mainstream actresses were shown as very simple and docile. But the overall image is now changing and today they have become smarter and bolder and they would certainly not mind being a part of provocative song," film critic Omar Qureshi told us.

"However, many actresses agree to do an item number just for the sake of their friendship with actors or filmmakers, such as Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone and Kareena Kapoor in Shah Rukh Khan's 'Billu'," he added.

Aishwarya wowed the audience with her sensuous moves in "Ishq kamina" in "Shakti" and "Kajrare" in "Bunty Aur Babli".

Shilpa is still remembered for her scintillating dance in the song "Main aayi hun UP (Uttar Pradesh) Bihar lootne" in "Shool" and "Shut up and bounce" in Abhishek Bachchan-John Abraham starrer "Dostana".

Kareena Kapoor's "Yeh mera dil" in Shah Rukh Khan starrer "Don: The Chase Begins Again", Sushmita's "Mehboob mere" in "Fiza" and Urmila Matondkar's "Aa hi jaiye" in "Lajja" are still popular among people.

"Item numbers have become the USP of a film. So it's like even if the film doesn't work, at least the song becomes popular and it is widely played in parties and shows," said trade analyst Taran Adarsh.

Actresses like Isha Koppikar rose on the film firmament with the item number "Khallas" in the hit gangster movie "Company", while Rakhi Sawant is known for her bold and sexy numbers like "Tuk tuk dekhe" in "Krazzy 4".

Item numbers are so tempting that even yesteryear diva Rekha couldn't hold herself back from featuring in "Kaisi paheli" in "Parineeta".

Katrina to join John Abraham on Kaakha Kaakha

Dostana 2 being postponed to late- 2011 has given John Abraham free time to start shooting the Hindi remake of Kaakha Kaakha with director Nishikant Kamat.

The actor starts shooting for Kaakha Kaakha this week. His Dostana 2 leading lady Katrina Kaif finds herself with free time on her hands and might end up pairing with John in this film.

Producer Vipul Shah commends Tarun Mansukhani for his decision to postpone Dostana 2. "It's commendable that Tarun  decided to wait until he was happy with his script. We were to start our remake of  Kaakha Kaakha in April but we pushed it ahead as we were not happy with our script. We've now revamped Kaakha Kaakha."

Vipul says Johnny Boy's leading lady is yet to finalised. Here's where John's project stands to benefit further from the postponement of Dostana 2. Katrina Kaif, a dear friend to both John and Vipul Shah, is being  asked to take over the leading lady's place in the project. And apparently KK is on. When contacted, Kat says the sudden postponement of Dostana 2 has left her dates diary disengaged. "Something else is being worked out," she offers evasively.

So if not Dostana 2, Kat will do the Kaakha Kaakha remake with John.

It seems that this time the organizers of CWG are gearing up for surprises, that is why they are lining up top celebrities for the mega event.

Since Katrina is busy shooting for Zoya Akhtar's 'Zindagi na milegi dubara', she hasn't confirmed anything yet regarding the offer.

Keeping in view, Suresh Kalmadi, chairman of the Organising Committee said, “I have nothing to confirm. If Katrina confirms this, go ahead and print it.”

This year, not only sports but there are lot many things that are in store for the CWG audiences.

Musician Ranjit Barot will be the music director of the games whereas Oscar winning composer A.R. Rahman will be composing the official anthem for the games.

Katrina Kaif gets dirty with Hrithik Roshan

Bollywood stars have all the fun when they are shooting overseas. If they had the same masti on the sets of some filmi studio here in Mumbai, they would invariably get romantically linked with each other.

So is the case with Katrina Kaif and Hrithik Roshan. The two along with the rest of the cast of Zoya Akhtar’s Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, are having a blast in Spain. They were out on the streets of Spain smashing tomatoes on each other at the annual Tomato festival that was held there.

“I had only heard about it, but now I got to experience it. The ritual brings in good luck. People from all over the world come to witness it. I had a lot of fun,” she said from Spain. Unfortunately, the one who missed out on all the fun was Mrs Roshan. Sussanne, who is also there, didn’t want to participate in it as the smell of rotting tomato pulp was driving her crazy. But other than her, nobody’s complaining!

Katrina Kaif will be in sequel of The Italian Job

There are rumors that Katrina Kaif is having second judgment about starring in Abbas Mustan’s remake of the 2003 Hollywood film, “The Italian Job” as her role is quite immaterial.

A source says, “at first, Katrina had decided to do the film. However, after going through the script, Katrina realized that she does not like her role.”

A spate of hits seems to have distorted Katrina’s stance towards the film. “Gone are the days when she signed films conflicting big heroes without bothering about her role. Today, Katrina is very exacting about her roles too,” adds the source.

As things stand today, she is dilly-dallying to sign on the dotted line unless her role in the film is sizeable enough.

Another cause why Katrina is doubtful to do this film is for the reason that one of the male lead actors was changed. “Earlier she was very kicked about the film because Saif was part of it. However, after Saif opted out of the project, her awareness soon diminished,” says the source.

before I forget, this is the third film in the last three months that Katrina has had second opinion about. It may be recalled that she had earlier opted out of Sanjay Gadhvi’s 7 Days In Paris. Just a few days ago, she had also refused to star in Anees Bazmee’s Thank You opposite Akshay Kumar despite agreeing to be part of it initially.

As for remake of “The Italian Job”, she might change her mind and star in the Abbas Mustan film if she’s satisfied with the changes in the script. Meanwhile, the directors are clueless as to why Katrina is hesitant to be part of the film and is asking them to make changes in the script.

Despite constant calls and text messages, Katrina and Abbas Mustan remained occupied for comment.

Katrina Kaif Will Never Kiss in Movie

Katrina Kaif has said a firm 'no' to kissing scenes in her impending films - even if the script demands so.

Says a friend of the actress: "Katrina has said no to kissing scenes in all her films excepting New York. And believe me, the directors are very keen to see her kiss her co-stars. Katrina cleverly keeps dodging all the so-called must-kiss scenes."

"She is a very traditional girl at heart. In fact, when reports claimed she was going to wear a bikini in Dostana 2, Katrina protested aggressively and made it clear to producer Karan Johar and director Tarun Mansukhani - 'no exposure. no kissing'."

In fact, the cast and crew of Rajneeti calls Katrina the new-age Hema Malini because she has the hits and she won't expose or kiss.

"Well...that's true. Though comparing me with Hemaji is too much. I don't deny I've done scenes in the past where I did things that I wasn't comfortable with. But now I won't. I just don't feel comfy doing kissing scenes, or for that matter, wearing a bikini on screen," said Katrina.

In both Ajan Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani and Rajneeti, there was apparently a request for a kiss with Ranbir Kapoor. But Katrina said a polite yet firm no.

"All the intimate scenes in Rajneeti are between Ranbir and his American girlfriend played by Sarah Thompson. They have lingering love-making and kissing shots. In the Indian portion of Ranbir's story, there's no intimacy with Katrina. She converted the director that the character of a dignified politician doing intimate scenes would not go down well with the audience."

Katrina says: "It's true...I'm not at all relaxed doing kissing scenes. Call me a prude or conservative. I just don't feel kissing scenes jell well with our audiences. So no kissing scenes for me."

Katrina Kaif's New Year Plan

Bollywood actresses are often sought to add glamour to New Year parties at world-class hotels and make the night memorable for the revelers. Katrina Kaif may have missed the chance to dance last year but this time she will and that too for an extra crore.

According to reports, Ms Kaif will get about Rs 2 crore, almost the double of what she was offered last year, to perform on New Year’s Eve party at J W Marriott. Last year, Mumbai was in no mood to celebrate after the terrorist attacks of 26/11 and thus most of the events were called off.

This year, Katrina has reportedly been asked again to perform and sources add, “This New Year's Eve, however, plans are on to make Katrina's event a grand affair. The actress has agreed to get jiggy but obviously for a higher price to match her present position in B-Town,”.

In previous years Mallika Sherawat and Bipasha Basu were also paid staggering amounts to dance at the bash but Katrina’s demand price has surpassed all. However, according to her, nothing is yet confirmed.

No doubt, the lady is in demand everywhere.

There should be a limit to fun, says Katrina Kaif

Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif is not taking rumours of her marriage with an Indore-based politician lightly. She says people should have fun, but within limits.

"The police have already issued a statement saying that it is utter rubbish and the police are going to arrest him and serve notice. I hope they do. I agree doing it in fun is one thing but there should be a limit," Katrina told reporters here.

"People shouldn't cross the line. I will definitely support the police' decision to penalise the person," she added.

The news came in effect after a marriage certificate approved by the Indore Municipal Corporation came to surface. It claimed that the 24-year-old is married to local Bharatiya Janata Party member Ramesh Mendola since December 2, 2008.

The certificate was also registered with the Indore civic body December 11 that year. The local Municipal Corporation however retaliated that the certificate was fake and a complaint will be lodged with the police.

The actress was in the capital to launch Veet's Ready-To-Use Wax Strips. Katrina is the brand ambassador of the brand.

Katrina, who starred in recently released hit Ajab Prem Ki Ghajab Kahani, also insisted: "I'm confident enough to know what I am speaking."

Katrina Kaif,Nicest person in the bollywood industry

They're starring together for the very first time, and Ranbir Kapoor is already all praise for his Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani co-star, Katrina Kaif.

Bollywood's latest heartthrob can go on and on about his Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani co-star Katrina Kaif. He finds her drive and passion for work inspiring and says she is 'the nicest person in the industry'.

"The drive that Katrina has is inspiring. She is there and she just doesn't stop. She has come a long way from where she started and where she is today," Ranbir said.

'Nicest person in the industry

"She is India's biggest actress and there is a lot of hard work, sacrifice and passion she has put behind that and I totally respect that. And the best part is that she doesn't take that for granted," the 28-year-old actor said.

Ranbir, who will be seen again with Katrina in Prakash Jha's political thriller Rajneeti, describes Katrina as the 'nicest person in the industry'.

"There is an amazing positive energy about her. She is hardworking and everything she does is for the betterment of the movie. She is fun loving, passionate about cinema and passionate about her work. I share a great rapport with her," he said.

His Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani is slated for release on November 6 and shows the story of a happy-go-lucky boy, who falls in love with a girl. But the girl is in love with someone else. The film also has a special appearance by Salman Khan.

Asked about his on-screen chemistry with Katrina, Ranbir said: "As far as chemistry is concerned, I always believe that chemistry never happens between two actors, it happens between two characters in the movie. It depends how the characters are written in the script and the moments and the scenes between them. That's when chemistry happens.

"Katrina and I are working for the first time, so people are finding this pairing new and fresh, but unless the film releases and unless it becomes a hit, you never know whether the chemistry has worked out or not," he said.

Ranbir, son of actors Rishi and Neetu Kapoor, made his acting debut in 2007 with Sanjay Leela's Bhansali's Saawariya opposite fellow newcomer Sonam Kapoor. The film failed at the box office, but it didn't deter his growth as he received positive reviews for his performance and got good offers.

Siddharth Anand's romantic comedy, Bachna Ae Haseeno was his second film and it hit the jackpot at the box office. And now everyone - from critics to audiences - are going ga ga over his performance in Wake Up Sid, in which he was paired opposite Konkana Sen Sharma.

After Ajab Prem..., Ranbir will be seen in Shimit Amin's Rocket Singh: Salesman of The Year, Rajneeti and Siddharth Anand's Anjaana Anjaani.

Katrina Kaif Barbie at Bloomingdale in New York

They say 'For every Taj Mahal, there's a Qutub Minar, and for every India Gate, there's a Gateway of India'. Likewise, for every Madam Tussauds museum, there's a Bloomingdale. If the name doesn't register (read 'ring a bell') in your mind, then, trust us that it soon will. For starters, Bloomingdale is the official domain for the world famous Barbie Doll and that it even has a museum dedicated to the same!

And the desi touch to this videsi story is that our very own Katrina Kaif, who, after being recently chosen as the 'Indian face' of Barbie Doll' will now be seen moulded into Barbie, the world's famous doll. An excited Katrina said that the customized Barbie that's being made for the American museum will just be like her. With this, Kats joins the likes of international celebrities like Beyonce Knowles and Diana Ross, no less.

With so much going for this young actress, one wonders what she would be honoured with next. Any guesses?

Biography for Katrina Kaif

Date of Birth
16 July 1984, London, England, UK

Nickname - Kat

Height  - 5' 8½" (1.74 m)

Born in Hong Kong on July 16, 1984 Katrina Kaif is one of eight siblings, all girls, from a mother who is a Caucasian of British Nationality, and a father who was formerly from Kashmir, India, but who has since acquired British citizenship.

She spent subsequent years in Hawaii, and then in London, Britain, She started modeling accidentally when she was in Hawaii at the tender age of 14, when she was approached for a jewelry 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 has taken 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 friends who she can hang out with.

Although her first movie 'Boom' was panned by the critics and shunned by the audiences, two other Telugu movies 'Malliswari' and 'Pidugu' did get her noticed. She grossed 70 Lakh Rupees 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 'Sarkar'.

Katrina had made Mumbai her base, didn't mind singing and dancing around trees and as a result is now one of the biggest mega-stars, perhaps one of the highest paid female-lead actresses in Bollywood, and a crowd-puller whenever she makes an appearance for a live song and dance number.

Personal Quotes

It's not my style to either wear minimum clothes, to strip or to even be comfortable with a sex-symbol label. I just want to do good work instead of sporting such meaningless tags. Sex sells, but to a small extent, not always. And this is what filmmakers have to accept. The exposure has to be relevant to the film and its characters and not forced for the sake of titillation. On the contrary, some of the greatest Indian films have been devoid of all these sexual trappings. I know my comfort zone in today's Indian culture and society.

Her thoughts on Bollywood accepting her, being an outsider British girl, into Indian cinema: "I have no complaints. I think I'm especially lucky. As you said, I've come from outside and I'm not even anywhere closely connected. But I have absolutely no problem here. People have been more than welcoming, even before I was ready. There was a time when I felt that I need to take time to understand more about the industry, the workings of it. I was doing my modeling, which I really wanted to do at the time. So that's why even my entry into films was later than people expected." (Stardust magazine, July 2006)

"I've been very blessed, I think, or what do you call it... mmm... lucky to get at this stage what I have. It's not like I've come from acting school and done work at an academy or something. I feel I've been given a very huge chance and opportunity." (Stardust magazine, July 2006)

My Hindi was bad about three years ago. I wanted to achieve a certain status in modeling. Through that I got confidence to get into movies. Maine Pyar Kyun Kiya? (2005) came at the right time. I had done kathak training which apart from teaching you about dancing also teaches you about emotions. After that experience, I feel this year will be a much better year for me.

I think I have been very lucky so far. I have done a lot of ads and also some films down south. People have liked me. I guess I have found a balance.

Wait and watch. Jee Karda should be on air later this month. We shot at 4am every day to capture the light and it was scorching. To keep cool we would stay in shades and sip fruit juice or mint tea.

Egypt is among the most beautiful countries I have visited - the pyramids, the temples and the landscape are absolutely exotic. I even enjoyed the barbecue dinner on a boat on the Nile. We shot in a number of places and I've come back with fond memories of my trip.

I unwind myself by taking off the costume and make-up as soon as the shoot is over! And get a spa treatment. It is extremely relaxing. Unfortunately, the kind of lifestyle and schedule we have, we hardly get time. Not only actors, but I have seen a lot of directors and journalists with skin problems and believe me, all that can be cured by a spa treatment.

Salman Khan did not help me get movie offers. What rubbish! Will any producer take a risk of millions of rupees at the instance of any person? Everyone knows that the film industry is highly competitive, and one gets a job on one's talent only and not on any recommendation.

My relationship with Salman Khan is too personal to talk about. I take my work like any other regular job and what I do in my personal life is no one's business. I'd rather let my work do all the talking.

Every one has her own love life. Every one has a dream to get a perfect life partner. But this is not so easy in real life. In fact, one doesn't love, it happens. As far as I am concerned, I love a boy who is linked with the film industry. However, I shall not name him. You never know what may happen in future.

Katrina Kaif-Ranbir Kapoor natural chemistry

Ranbir Kapoor and Katrina Kaif have a natural talent for comedy. A unit hand of Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani said, “Ranbir and Katrina possess a great sense of humour. The two make jokes at a drop of a hat. Their
one-liners can have you in splits. It is this off the set chemistry that has come across on screen too.
The unit had become like this one big family. “We had become so close by the end of it that tears would well up in our eyes when we’d watch Katrina and Ranbir do an emotional scene. But we all kept quiet about it,” said the source.
The comic sequences have turned out to be simply entertaining. In fact, the unit could not help control their laughter while the comic scenes were being shot. “Not only Rajkumar Santoshi and Ramesh Taurani, but also the entire crew would break into laughter.”

Kaif appeared on the singing talent show Sa Re Ga Ma Pa with Salman Khan to promote her film Yuvvraaj. Kaif is the model for Mattel's Bollywood Barbie, which will be released in September 2009.

At age fourteen she was approached by an agent and began modeling; her first job was for a jewelry campaign. She continued modeling in London, under a contract with the Models 1 Agency and did campaigns for houses like La Senza and Arcadius and even walked on the London Fashion Week.

Kaif's London modeling work led to her discovery by London-based filmmaker Kaizad Gustad, who gave her a part in his film Boom (2003). She moved to Mumbai and was offered a number of modeling assignments. However, filmmakers were initially hesitant to sign her because she could not speak Hindi.

Kaif saw success with the 2005 film Sarkar where she played the bit part of Abhishek Bachchan's girlfriend. Her next release, Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya (2005), where she was paired opposite Salman Khan, earned her the Stardust Breakthrough Performance Award.

In 2007 Katrina appeared in the hit movie Namastey London, wherein she starred as a British-Indian girl alongside Akshay Kumar for the second time after the box office dud Humko Deewana Kar Gaye (2006). Since then, she had appeared in a series of box office hits that include Apne, Partner and Welcome.

2008 saw her play a negative role for the first time in Abbas-Mustan's hit action thriller Race. She played the role of Saif Ali Khan's secretary who is secretly in love with his hostile stepbrother played by Akshay Khanna. She appeared next in Anees Bazmee's box office super-hit Singh Is Kinng alongside Akshay Kumar for the fourth time. Kaif's final release of the year, Subhash Ghai's Yuvvraaj, was a surprise critical and commercial failure.

Kaif's first release for 2009, New York, with John Abraham was a critical and commercial success. Kaif's performance was highly appreciated with critic Taran Adarsh writing, "Katrina gives you the biggest surprise. Known for her glamour roles, Katrina proves that she can deliver if the director and writer offer her a role of substance. She's outstanding. In fact, people will see a new, different Katrina this time.
