Katrina Kaif is a name many casual moviegoers might not recognize in the United States, but across the sea in India, she is a bonafide superstar British actress who works primarily in Hindi-language films.
Throughout her career, she’s earned enough to call herself one of the highest-paid actresses in India and the recipient of several awards honoring her achievements in film, standing at the front lines of championing the world of Bollywood.
It wasn’t smooth sailing right out of the gate for Katrina, and she struggled, as do most men and women looking to break into the industry without the help of the right connections. Because of her beauty, she worked as a model moving around from city to city until she landed in London, where she was scouted and put in the film Boom (2003).
It was a disaster by all measures, but it’s the foot in the door Katrina needed to take the reigns and carve out what would become one of the great careers for an actress overseas.

Katrina Kaif comes from an eclectic background. Her exposure to different cultures and customs has informed her performances in the Bollywood sphere. Fans and critics noticed and honored Katrina with four Screen Awards and four Zee Cine Awards.
Katrina isn’t your conventional Bollywood star of British descent. Born in Hong Kong, she lived in several countries before finding a home in the UK for three years.
Working in fashion on the London circuit, she was discovered by Indian filmmaker Kaizad Gustad, who cast her in her first picture.
The film flopped, and she struggled to find acting gigs while continuing to model professionally. Thankfully, her struggle for work wasn’t because of any lack of acting ability but because her command of Hindu wasn’t up to par yet.
Things turned around quickly for the blossoming star with a few romantic comedies like Mere Brother Ki Dulhan, which earned her nominations for the Filmfare Award for Best Actress. She’s featured in listings as one of India’s most attractive and beloved celebrities, which is just icing on a cake made of hefty paychecks.
Katrina is active in philanthropic causes. She’s always on the right side of op-ed pieces written about her, which praise her work and generous donations. She’s vocal about her support for LGBTQ+ rights and the fight against domestic violence.
She participates in a trust run by her mother called Relief Projects India. The goal is to provide resources to the underprivileged. These include rehabilitation, education, housing, and infanticide prevention.
Under her cosmetics brand Kay Beauty, Katrina launched the #Kare initiatives, supporting every issue under the umbrella term of social causes, including the employment of more women.
