KATRINA KAIF
Katrina Kaif Biography
katrina kaif's biography:
Standing at 5’8”, a lovely peaches n cream complexion and an hour-glass figure, the beautiful and elegant Katrina Kaif stands apart and is not one to go unnoticed. Not surprisingly the modeling world rolled down the red carpet for her, movie offers are pouring in and she is linked with one of the hottest and controversial Khans of Bollywood.
Roots
Katrina Kaif, a name now familiar to Indian movie-goers, was born on July 16th 1984, in Hong Kong. Her parents are both British citizens, while her father is a Kashmiri who later acquired British citizenship. She lived in Hawaii before moving to UK and is now setting up a home and career in India.
On the runway
Kaif’s first taste of modeling happened in Hawaii when she was 14 and was part of a jewelry campaign. Thereafter, she continued modeling in London. In India, there was no dearth of offers and she appeared in the ads of Veet, Lakme, LG, Samsung to name a few. She was also the face of Lakme India Fashion Week 2005. She took the number one spot in FHM India's 100 Sexiest Women in the World poll and also won the Best Female Style Icon at the IIFA Awards
Onto the big screen
Kaif, while in London, was spotted by Kaizad Gustad and was cast in his 2003 release Boom, which sank without a trace. Movie offers initially trickled in owing largely to her unfamiliarity with Indian languages. The very next year, in 2004, she played the part of Princess Malliswari in the Telugu movie Malliswari. She had another Telugu film, Allari Pidugu in 2005, along with two Hindi movies, Ram Gopal Verma’s Sarkar and as one of Salman Khan’s love interests in David Dhawan’s Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya. Both movies did well in the box office. She won the Stardust Breakthrough Performance Award (Female) for Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya. She co-starred with Akshay Kumar in Humko Deewana Kar Gaya, in 2006. Besides this she was a part of a Malayam movie Balram Vs Taradas.
Five releases marked 2007. Her movie Namaste London with Akshay Kumar, was one of the year’s top hits, in which she did her own dubbing. The other three movies were Apne with the Deols, David Dhawan’s Partner with Salman Khan and Govinda and Welcome, all of which performed well at the box office. She also put in a special appearance in Nanhe Jaisalmer. In 2008, we caught her in two blockbusters the racy Race and Singh Is Kinng and walking away with the British-Indian Actor award for the Zee Cine Awards (2008).
What’s Cooking?
In the later of part of 2008, she is set to play a small part in Hello, based on Chetan Bhagat’s One Night At A Call Center. Four movies are due to come out in 2009: Yuvraj, Blue, New York, Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahani.
Kaif over the past four years has shown that she is more than simply ravishing. The industry which was tentative about casting her, now considers her a lucky mascot and is the industry’s darling.

Soon after his successful debut in Bollywood, he tied the knot with his childhood sweetheart Suzanne Khan, daughter of actor Sanjay Khan and sister of actor Zayed Khan. They have two sons, Hrehaan and Hridhan.
He had his bad moments after stepping into the spotlight. His father was shot by the underworld when he refused to give the foreign rights of Kaho Na Pyaar Hai. It was followed by rumours that the actor had made remarks against Nepalese which resulted in outrage against the actor in Nepal. However the actor denied it.
Hrithik is known to be a perfectionist and has worked very hard to be where he is today. He prepares himself thoroughly for every role he portrays, has trained in dance and acting besides working on his diction and his appearance. He started working out under Salman Khan’s guidance, when he worked as an assistant director on the sets of Karan Arjun and Koyla.
He got a taste of Bollywood as a child, when he appeared in the film Aasha (1980), Aapke Deewane (1980) and Bhagwan Dada (1986). But it was the year 2000 that made people sit up and take note.
A Star Is Born….
2000 Kaho Na Pyaar Hai, a love story directed by his father, in which he starred opposite newcomer Amisha Patel was an exceptional success, winning eight Filmfare awards among countless others, two of which landed with Hrithik for Best Debut and Best Actor. This was followed by Fiza with Karishma Kapoor and Jaya Bacchan, in which his portrayal the terrorist Amaan was appreciated. He played a similar role in Mission Kashmir with Preity Zinta

TABU'S LIFE STYLE
TABU, SHORT FOR TABASSUM, has acting in her genes. Her aunt is Shabana Azmi and her sister Farha Naaz. It was while she was visiting Farha in Mumbai that Dev Anand spotted her and gave her a small part in 'Hum Naujawan' ” a particularly gruesome one for a kid, since she was raped and murdered in the film. Sis Farha discouraged Tabu from getting into films and packed her off to college to complete her education. But when Boney Kapoor's 'Prem' was offered to her (apparently on Shabana Azmi's recÂommendation) opposite the producer's brother Sanjay Kapoor, she could not refuse. UnfortuÂnately for her, she signed a conÂtract that forbade her from signAing any films till 'Prem' was reÂleased and since the film took over five years to complete, it turned out to be an endurance test for Tabu. Just when her patience was running out, and she was batÂtling rumours of a romance with Sanjay, an acrimonious split with Farha and some other unpleasÂAant gossip, the Kapoors finally released her from the contract and her 'Roman Holiday'-in-spired 'Pehla Pehla Pyar' was released.
It bombed, so did 'Prem', though it was no fault of Tabu's. She had grace, charm, a natural beauty and loads of talent. The girl who was shy and reticent in person was completely transformed on screen into a confident actress. The extent of her talent was not immediately evident though, since in a desperate attempt to keep her head above water, she had signed some very ordinary films like 'Vijaypath', 'Himmat', 'Tu Chor Main Sipahi' and 'Saajan Ki Baahon Mein'. 'Haqeeqat' with Ajay Devgan, in which she played a widow who unwittingly falls in love with her husband's killer, was a flop, but showed the first glimmer of what she could do with a really meaty role. It took the expert eye of Priyadarshan ('Saza-E-Kalapani') andGulzar ('Maachis') to recognise the potential in Tabu and give her the chance to prove it. She won acclaim for 'Saza-E-Kalapani' even in the very small role of a bride abanÂdoned on her wedding day; and a well-deserved National Award for'Maachis' in which she played a young woman who loses her family and joins a terrorist outÂfit to take revenge against the system that brutalised her people.
Tabu appeared without make-up in dowdy clothes, yet inAfused such intelligence and pasÂsion into the role that she won the National Award in the teeth of competition from more expeÂrienced actresses. Even though she has done typiÂcally commercial films like 'Saajan Chale Sasural' and 'Biwi No. 1', Tabu believes that she hasn't got her due because she was stamped as an art film actress. ^She tried to do glamorÂous roles, specially in Tamil, Telugu and also a few Malayalam films, but always returned to do more challenging and satisfying roles in films like 'Viraasat' and 'Hu Tu Tu' Fact is that Tabu, with her model-like height and beauty, may pass off as a dumb potboiler kind of heroine, but directors who want a leading lady who can act well, automatically make a beeline for her — like Govind Nihalani for 'Thakshak' and Rajiv Menon for 'Kandukondain Kandukondain'. By now, she has honed her acting skills so much that she is incapable of giving a bad performance, even if it is a two-scene role like in 'Border'. Perhaps what also came in the way of her career, was the openly admitted romance and engagement with producer Sajid Nadiadwala, now reportedly off. But the way the male-domiÂnated film industry functions, not only are the heroes wary of acting with a very talented acÂtress, they also stay away from leading ladies who are in committed relationships. There are new and fresh faces being introduced regularly and today's heroines are required to be sexy rather than talenTED.
