Katrina was born in Hong Kong to an
Indian Kashmiri father, Mohammed Kaif, and an English mother, Suzanne
Turquotte, both of whom are British citizens. Her parents divorced when
she was very young. Kaif has seven siblings. She was raised in Hawaii
and later moved to her mother’s home country, England.
Katrina began her modelling career in
Hawaii at the age fourteen; her first job was for a jewellery campaign.
She continued modelling in London and did several advertising campaigns,
and even walked the ramp in the London Fashion Week. While in London,
was spotted by Kaizad Gustad, who casted Katrina in his 2003 film, Boom,
which sank without a trace. Movie offers initially trickled in owing
largely to her unfamiliarity with Indian languages. In 2004, she played
the part of Princess Malliswari in the Telugu movie Malliswari, followed by another Telugu film, Allari Pidugu.
In 2008, we caught her in two blockbusters- Race and Singh Is Kinng, both of which did well. Her first release for 2009, New York, was also a commercial success. At the year’s end, she appeared in Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani, with Ranbir Kapoor, and in De Dana Dan. Both films were did well at the box-office.
Katrina’s first film of 2010 was the Prakash Jha directed political thriller, Raajneeti, where she appeared opposite Ranbir Kapoor. The film did extremely well at the box-office.Katrina also starred in Tees Maar Khan with Akshay Kumar in which her item song, Sheila Ki Jawani, was a huge hit.
In 2011, Katrina Kaif was seen in Zoya Akhtar’s Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara and Yash Raj Films’ Mere Brother Ki Dulhan. Both these films did well at the box-office.
Katrina Kaif will next be seen in two Yash Raj Films’ projects: opposite Salman Khan in Ek Tha Tiger and opposite Shah Rukh Khan in another film.
