With SIK success, Katrina makes it 9 in a row


No other heroine this decade has got the kind of success that Katrina Kaif has registered. And all of this has happened even as the pretty girl hasn't been required to indulge into any kind of histrionics and has mainly made her way to the top with her song and dance routine while looking fabulous on camera.

Crowds have thronged theaters to witness Akshay romance Katrina once again on celluloid and haven't gone home disappointed. And all of this even as the girl was severely criticized with her Bollywood debut outing Boom which had 'boomed' badly.

However, ever since then, she has seen good success coming her way with each of the 9 films that she has been a part of. While Ramu got her back on the silver screen with Sarkar, Salman Khan's Maine Pyaar Kyun Kiya gave her another good hit to savior open. Hum Ko Deewana Kar Gaye with Akshay may have been a coverage fare but whatever that followed, be it Namastey London, Apne, Partner, Welcome and most recently Race, have only elevated her box office standing with every passing month.

Now Singh Is Kinng has turned out to be yet another example of Katrina Kaif ensuring that she continues to have her huge winning streak continue film after film, year after year. This Akshay Kumar, Anees Bazmee and Vipul Shah film has embarked on a huge box office opening and a share of credit certainly goes to Katrina who has ensured that her Barbie Doll appearance (in 'Jee Karda') is well complimented by the sensual woman persona (in 'Teri Ore') that she has donned for Singh Is Kinng.
