What Makes Katrina Kaif Bollywood's Number One Heroine...

Did you guys watch Koffee With Karan's just concluded season? Then you must have observed how almost every actor dismissed Katrina Kaif as an actor and ranked her at the bottom of the acting pile?

Despite average acting skills and poor diction, the stunner has become the number one heroine in Bollywood. She has worked with all the top heroes, has the best endorsement brands in her kitty, and has given more hits than any of her contemporaries.

We find out how she has risen to this position...take a look.

The Khan connection:

When the Barbie-esque beauty started off, she landed the biggest blockbusters thanks to her relationship with Khan. She was marketed as a Sallu-find. Is it possible that her right connections landed her the right roles? May be. But there's no denying the fact that she has worked incredibly hard on her Hindi and acting chops. The question though is can you spot much of a difference between her acting in Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya and Bang Bang?

The firang appeal:

The Brit babe has always been exotic for our Indian audiences. With her milky white complexion and accented English, her 'firang-ness' has definitely helped cement her place in Bollywood. We crave for such unique beauties and want to know more about them. Precisely why she has been cast in movies tailor made for her like Namaste London, Newyork and Jab Tak Hai Jaan.  Despite doing fewer movies than her contemporaries, she has been able to remain on top. Remember her blink-and-you-miss-it role in the mega hit Dhoom 3? She completely overshadowed Deepika Padukone's four back-to-back hits with one massive blockbuster. That's Kamali for you!

Dazzling screen presence:

When you're acting opposite the A-listers, you don't really need to be a great actor, but a stunning performer. Which Kat is. She has a dazzling screen presence that makes other actresses go green with envy. Her sexy-meets-cute avatar, combined with her sculpted body are enough reasons to fall in love with her. She is one actress who has shrewdly played the game of conquering Bollywood. She knows that she has to be the perfect fit to the macho hero onscreen.

Private life is strictly private:

While many of her competitors wear their hearts on their sleeves, killer Kaif has remained strictly private. Even when she was allegedly dating Salman Khan, she never openly spoke about it. May be this aura of aloofness and mystery is what keeps her going strong in Bollywood. She is not divulging anything about current sweetheart Ranbir Kapoor either. Even though fans are always on the lookout to know more about their favorite stars, a little bit of mystery ups the hotness quotient for sure. She is a thorough professional whose sincerity and hard work makes up for her poor acting skills and Hindi.
