Zarine Khan entered, all 5 feet 8 inches of her and the room was filled with her beautiful presence. Dressed in a green and red Ashley Rebello sari she looked absolutely stunning. Yes, she does look a lot like Katrina Kaif . But she is so very charming in her own way.
She was late, rather fashionably late we'd say and profusely apologised saying, "The more you try to hasten, the longer you take to get ready. Since it is my first public appearance, I was all the more cautious about looking pretty."
Then the actress switched to Hindi. All doubts about her origin were cleared. "I don't understand this speculation about the country of my origin. I am very much Indian. I have lived in Mumbai all my life. "
Of course the question about her resemblance to our favourite Bollywood beauties had to arise. "Wow I'm really flattered. I think Katrina is just so gorgeous! But when I look at myself in the mirror, I can hardly see the resemblance."
When asked about her co-star Salman, she said, "He's been really supportive. They say he's a man with a short temper, but I don't think so at all. In fact, every time I wouldn't get a scene right, he'd act it out for me."
And then that ever lurking question of her full bodied frame came up. "It was all for the film. I did my bit of research. Indian Princesses were more on the healthier side. So I had to put on some amount of weight. Of course, I intend to lose all of it now. I doubt if this look will work for my other films."
But what about the current obsession for a Size Zero body Ms Khan? "No way! I am a Pathan. No matter how much I lose, I'll still have a big frame."
At heart Zarine is just another simple Bombay girl. The only difference is that this girl is actually living her dream. "I don't believe any of this", she says, "I feel like my mum's going to shake me up and ask me to wake up from my dream."
