19 February 2008 (Sawf News) - Katrina Kaif's dream run at the box office in 2007 has made her a sought after actor and brand ambassador. Having clinched a six crore two film deal with Studio 18 earlier this month the star has now bagged a deal with the Godrej group to endorse its Godrej Renew hair color product.
The deal with Studio 18 has already made Katrina, a relative lightweight till the beginning of 2007, one of the highest paid Bollywood actresses.
With the Godrej deal Katrina, already a familiar and endearing face on the small screen, is all set to join the ranks of actresses like Aishwarya Rai and Preity Zinta who dominate TV ads.
As far as films go, the 23-year-old daughter of a Kashmiri father and a British mother looks poised for another success with Abbas-Mustan directed Race due to be released March 21.
The film tells the story of two brothers, Ranvir Singh (Saif Ali Khan) and Rajeev Singh (Akshaye Khanna), who compete against each other living life on the edge. Katrina plays, Sofia, the beautiful secretary of Ranvir who is in love with him, though he loves glamorous model Sonia (Bipasha Basu).
Katrina Kaif, who stands out in the promos and stills for the film, features in a song sequence with Saif, choreographed by Bosco-Caesar, wearing a dress that arguably no other actress in Bollywood could have carried off.
"The song demanded the kind of outfit we chose. I found this dress designed by Jenny Packham in Dubai who is a big name there and retails in many hi-fashion stores there. It's a flowy, layered blue dress," Katrina says.
The line up of Katrina's other forthcoming films is impressive and includes:
