Not only did the model-turned-actress star in the forgettable Boom, but she also starred in a number of films down south before bagging her first successful film alongside Salman Khan in Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya.
Both Salman Khan and veteran actress Tabu consider Katrina to be one of the most hardworking actresses in Bollywood.
In a recent interview, Katrina, who will next be seen romancing Aditya Roy Kapoor in Fitoor, opened up about her 11-year-long struggle in Bollywood. She said:

If you are in control of doing your work on sets then you enjoy it and that's when the joy and enjoyment comes in."
