Koena Mitra

 With a body to kill for, Koena danced her way to Bollywood and instantly set tinsel town on fire! Although she dreamt of a career in the glamour industry at a very young age, she chose to make a slow and steady start.

Her early modeling assignments include big brands like, Mirinda, Clinic All Clear and Maruti Alto. It was after winning the Gladrags Mega Model, 2002 title that she got a taste of limelight.

She also shot music videos, like stereo nation’s Ishq, Channo by Jassi, among many. And after gaining all the technical knowledge and being absolutely comfortable in front of the camera, Koena made a smashing entry into Bollywood with a sizzling item number in Ram Gopal Verma’s ‘Road’.

This was followed by a small role in Sanjay Gupta’s Musafir, which opened many doors to Bollywood. Her first movie as a lead actor was ‘Ek Khiladi Ek Haseena’ directed by Suparn Verma opposite Fardeen Khan.


But the movie that got her all the attention she wanted in Bollywood was ‘Apna Sapna Money, Money’. The movie was a hit and so was Koena. But behind the glamorous Koena lies a very hard working and organized actor.

Her daily routine consists of a gym workout, breakfast and shoot. Koena makes sure she winds up her shoot by 10pm to relax and enjoy at her place in Mumbai. It won’t be wrong to call Koena a fitness freak. She makes sure she goes to the gym every single day, even if it’s 4 in the morning! Eating right and exercise are her mantra for a fabulous body.

She gets at least 6 hours of sleep everyday, which means no partying for her. When not working she prefers to stay at home listening to music and watching movies with her friends. With a fit body and fabulous looks, Koena prefers to do her stunts herself. In fact she’s trained in action, kick boxing and Tai Chi.

Koena is known for being an excellent dancer. Credit goes to Mamata Shankar Ballet troupe where she was trained for twelve years. She’s also trained in Latin and Hip Hop. Not many people know that Koena is a very good make-up artist herself! Her talent doesn’t end there. Being the daughter of an artist she loves to design her house and clothes. She also has a fetish for fast cars, especially SUVs. And when it comes to food, she craves for Bengali sea food.

 

Katrina Kaif 2

Katrina Kaif is one of eight siblings, all girls, from a mother who is a Caucasian of British Nationality, and a father who was formerly from Kashmir, India, but who has since acquired British citizenship. Her mother is now re-settled in Chennai (formerly known as Madras), the Capital of the state of Tamil Nadu in India.

She spent subsequent years in Hawaii, and then in London, Britain, She started modeling accidentally when she was in Hawaii at the tender age of 14, when she was approached for a jewelry campaign. Thereafter she continued modeling in London.

Continuing to model was the reason she got her break in a Bollywood movie 'Boom' offered by none other than film-maker Kaizad Gustad.

She was flooded with modeling assignments the minute she set her foot on Indian soil, especially with her innocent expressive face, hour-glass figure, and drop-dead gorgeous looks.

Professionally she started off as a model with photographer Atul Kasbekar, and upon being accepted, she received offers from LG, Cola, Fevicol, Lakme, & Veet. It was the Lakme commercial that got her noticed. She retained Matrix as her Manager to accept work on her behalf and at the price she deserved.

Moving to different culture and country was not much of a culture shock for her, as she states that no matter where you come from, the bottom line is that everyone wants to be loved, respected, and cared for.

Despite of her positive attitude, she had been stereotyped as "Indian" by extreme right-wingers in Britain who made it clear that she did not quite fit-in with their "Blonde" Caucasian culture; while on the other hand in India itself she had been ranked as an 'outsider' very much like Sonia Gandhi.

Unlike other artistes from foreign lands, Katrina did not experience any difficulties in getting a visa nor of getting it extended in India.

Although linguistically challenged, Katrina puts on a bold face and states that other Bollywood artistes like Sridevi, who did not know Hindi, did get offers from Bollywood film-makers, and she is no different. She has taken Hindi and dancing lessons to fit in with the Bollywood culture. She likes to display a picture of her learning Kathak dancing where she used to dance 7 hours a day non-stop.

Adorned with soft gorgeous looks, she is not easily intimidated, but admits that she is very emotional, sensitive, and concerned about her privacy, Almost an incurable romantic, she prefers to wear comfortable non-revealing clothes when at home, hates to do her hair, and above all dislikes make-up. Admitting to being lonely in the beginning, but now has several friends who she can hang out with.

Although her first movie 'Boom' was panned by the critics and shunned by the audiences, two other Telugu movies 'Malliswari' and 'Pidugu' did get her noticed. She grossed 70 Lakh Rupees for 'Malliswari' - making her top the list of the highest paid actresses during a South Indian movie debut.

Not done with South Indian movies, she has been signed in a Tamil movie 'Bheema' opposite National Award Winner Vikram.

She has received decent reviews for her part in "Maine Pyar Kyon Kiya", as well as a brief appearance in 'Sarkar'.

Katrina had made Mumbai her base, didn't mind singing and dancing around trees and as a result is now one of the biggest mega-stars, perhaps one of the highest paid female-lead actresses in Bollywood, and a crowd-puller whenever she makes an appearance for a live song and dance number.
