Her cherubic yet pixieish aura allows Katrina Kaif to slip into romantic comedy roles with ease. And mind you, our lady has done quite a few of these rom-com.
Ms Kaif's new film, Welcome, co-starring Akshay Kumar, Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar, Mallika Sherawat and Feroz Khan, too, belongs to the same genre.
Obviously then, this Bollywood Princess has seen her share of one too many Prince Charmings on screen. Bearing that in mind, rediff.com profiles the actress' reel-life Mr Rights:
Akshay Kumar
Filmmaker Raj Kanwar, known for churning overbearing desi remakes of Hollywood's sugary fare like While You Were Sleeping (Har Dil Jo Pyaar Karega), A Walk in the Clouds (Dhaai Akshar Prem Ke), was the first to spot a potential hit jodi in Akki and Katrina.
Though the Notting Hill-meets-Mehboob Studios sensibilities of his trite romance, Hum Ko Deewana Kar Gaya didn't particularly excite, the good-looking couple got noticed. Their chemistry sparkled further as they played tailor-made roles in London Spice Girl versus Punjab da puttar concoction, Namaste London.
Will the winning combination work its magic in Welcome too? In all likelihood!
