Birthday Girl Katrina Kaif Is On A Break News24 –


The best thing to happen to Katrina Kaif, who turned a year older on July 16, is Vicky Kaushal. Their marriage is a rarity in the film industry where couples quite frequently do their own thing while keeping up appearances of togetherness in public.

Katrina and Kaushal are fully devoted to one another. A close friend of the couple shared thoughts on the marriage. “Marriage has calmed down Katrina. She no more gets anxious about small things. Right now she is on a break from her acting career to focus on being a wife and , eventually, mother.”

There was a time when Katrina was not considered Indian enough. In a throwback interview the actress had addressed the question of her Indianness. “Me not Indian? I think I’m as Indian as it can get. I want to know how many Caucasians are brown-skinned? And you’ve to admit I’m brown in complexion. Having said that I don’t wish to give any importance to the people who have made my nationality into a national issue. All I’ll say is I’m very much an Indian. And it’s an insult to my parents to suggest I am not. I think I had to undertake my own journey and do things my own way. I learnt on the job. I think I’ve acquired knowledge of the camera on-camera. So no regrets about not attending any acting school. If I had regrets about any aspect of my career I’d be the most ungrateful person on the planet. Look at the level of acceptance I’ve received in so little time. Some people don’t get this kind of success after working all their lives.”

She also admitted that Salman Khan played a big hand in her journey from aspirant to star. “Salman helped me a lot to find my bearings in Mumbai. He guided me, helped me choose the right roles and to find my place in Mumbai. He was there for me constantly. With Salman and his family around I never felt alone in Mumbai.”

Katrina confessed to me that she often ends up subconsciously looking for a father- figure in her male company. “We sisters grew up without a father in the house. So I guess I do look for sensible wise male company. I get bored with giddy-headed guys of my own age.”
