Katrina Kaif was born on 16 July 1984. She is a Hong Kong-born Indian film actress who has appeared in Hindi, Telugu and Malayalam films. Kaif's London model work led to her discovery by film-maker Kaizad Gustad, who gave her a part in his film Boom (2003). She moved to Mumbai and was offered a number of modelling assignments. However, film-makers were at first hesitant to sign her because she wasn't able to speak Hindi. Katrina saw success with the 2005 film Sarkar where she played the brief role of Abhishek Bachchan's love interest. Her next release, Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya (2006), where she was paired opposite Salman Khan, earned her an award at the Stardust Award for breakthrough female performance.
