My Hindi is not good: Katrina Kaif

Added by harini on Jul 15, 2011

Despite staring in so many Bollywood movies and working so hard on her Hindi, the Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif still doesn’t think that her Hindi is good enough.

Recently on Airtel Talk2me, a fan had asked her if she was planning to host a reality show on television any time soon.

“I do not take up hosting reality shows as my Hindi is not good, that might become a problem. I am also busy with my movie projects as I do 2-3 of them a year. I will definitely try if I get any chance,” she replied.

When commented that she looks good with Salman Khan, she simply replied, “Yes, he is a good friend of mine.”

It won’t be surprising if we see Katrina on small screen soon given that many big names of Bollywood like Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Priyanka Chopra etc have already ventured into the territory.
