Katrina Kaif is undoubtedly the hottest actress in Indian film industry right now. However, her shortcoming is that she doesn't know hindi and her voice is often dubbed. Ok, of late, she has done a few dialogies but they have been confined to some really well rehearsed hindi lines and anyone can spot that her spontaneity in dialogue delivery is about the same as a grandfather's spontaneity in a sad russian play.

This sentiment has unknowlingly splipped into the psyche of people who have typecasted her in roles which demand such a thing. Look at Namaste London. An NRI with bad hindi... yea of course! Then in movies like Singh is King and Race where she only sticks in front of the camera for the sake of eye candy. Rajneeti's director Prakash Jha atleast saw something beyond dance and eye candy to offer her a role which she did to the best of her abilities. However, it's still tough to change the mentality of people around. The female centric roles still go to, well no surprises, Priyanka Chopra (who is my favourite). Priyanka Chopra has the whole hindi vibe going on with her which makes her really awesome :P

Anyways, back to Katrina Kaif. What made me laugh and made my day actually was the caption that went along with a still of Tees Maar Khan in today's The Hindu review - "In the movie, Katrina Kaif effortlessly slips into the shoes of a dumb wannabe actress." Looks like the real film industry is not too different from the what the movie portrays. Katrina Kaif has indeed effortlessly slipped into the indian film industry but does very little talking and for that reason is almost "dumb". I'm not sure if the reviewer wrote it deliberately but if he did, a big thumbs up for making a nice humorous point. It definitely made it laugh. Ofcourse, there is no offence meant to Katrina Kaif. She has got all the looks and has got half the country going gaga after her.
