After recently seducing the juice out of us in advertisements of a leading mango drink, bollywood’s reigning queen Katrina Kaif is now the international brand ambassador of the luxurious national airline of United Arab Emirates – Etihad Airways. The actress has shot a TV commercial for the airline where she is seen dancing along with co-passengers at the airport lobby. Interestingly the choreography has been done by Farah Khan, with whom Katrina is currently doing her latest movie ‘Tees Maar Khan’.

Hard work and great looks are what have fetched the effervescent beauty endorsements from high profile brands such as Kodak, Slice, Spice Telecom, Veet, Dyna, Godrej, Idea, Pantene. In the pursuance of their vision, Etihad airways was looking for an individual who is young, premium, fresh and vivacious and Katrina fits the bill perfectly. The advertisement brings out the motto of Etihad Airways “It Feels Good to Fly with the Best.” And after seeing the advert, who wouldn’t want to fly with the likes of Katrina Kaif! Etihad Airways operates 147 flights daily to over 64 destinations across 42 countries worldwide.

Katrina Kaif is a gem for the Bollywood Industry. Her mother was British and Father was an Indian Kashmiri but she is very poor in Hindi. She has done lot of modeling assignments in London before coming into Hindi Film Industry. Her first modeling assignment was for a jewelry shop.
Although she is very poor in Hindi but look at her courage of doing films. She not only had done lot of Hindi movies but also few Telugu and Malayalam movies, and guesses what; she is not at all comfortable with any of these languages.
Her first hit Hindi movie was “Sarkar” but for her career the first hot was “Namaste London”. Now she is a very strong character for Indian film industry and she has won lot of awards like Zee Cine Awards in 2008, Breakthrough Performance Award by StarDust for year 2005/06.
That’s not all. She had won lot of awards in Hindi Film Industry. Some of them are Screen Awards (Entertainer of the Year) in year 2010, IIFA (International Indian Film Academy) Awards for Glamorous Diva of the Year in year 2008 and lot more. She was nominated 2 times for Best Actor (Female), 1 time for Negative Role, Star of the Year, Best Actress in supporting role, and Best Actress in leading role.

Her first movie was BOOM and was a big flop but Katrina proved her attitude and hard work in her two Telugu Movies ‘Malliswari’ and ‘Pidugu’. She was the first actress in South Indian Cinema who had got 70 Lakh (highest amount so far) in a debut.

Not she a shining star of Indian Cinema and brand ambassador of many famous brands like Lakme, Veet, Kodak, Samsung, Slice, Spice Mobiles. In year 2005 she was chosen as face of the year for Lakme Fashion week.
Google has announced that in 2009 the most searched celebrity of Indian cinema was Katrina Kaif.

Katrina Kaif: It is one of the vagueries of the Hindi film industry that an actress like Katrina Kaif, who is born to an Indian-Kashmiri father and a British mother, is right there at the top even though she hardly speaks Hindi. What’s more, she has also done films in Telugu and Malayalam without knowing those languages either! What helps, one supposes is that undoubtedly she is the best looker in the film industry today with a sexy body to match. And also that she has been cast correctly in most of her films as by and large her roles have been fairly undemanding requiring her to look good, wear short dresses, dance a bit and smile sweetly! But to be fair to Katrina, she did carry off a role centred around her in Namastey London (2007) fairly efficiently. She also boasts the best box-office record amongst the actresses of today with most of her recent films doing extremely well at the box-office.
