With Bollywood’s penchant for fair skin, light eyes and lithe figures, it’s not a surprise that a lot of foreigners are migrating to Bollywood. With less competition and an accepting fraternity, these girls are big money makers for the Bollywood director and producer. While not everyone is successful, these girls have managed to carve a niche for themselves in this industry.
Katrina Kaif
It’s hard to believe that when this top actress came into the industry she did not know a word of hindi. After debuting in Boom which was a complete debacle, Katrina (who’s British-Indian) got her first hit with Namaste London. Katrina has long been called the ‘pretty girl who just pouts and preens’ in her male-dominated films but Katrina can act too. She’s shown her acting skills in Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, Rajneeti and Namaste London. Katrina has also had her fair share of controversies that have ranged from an accusation about fabricating her lineage (Ayesha Shroff claimed in a leading daily that they made up her surname and background so she could connect to the Indian audience) and her penchant for dating top stars like Salman Khan and Ranbir Kapoor. All we can say is, kudos Miss Kaif for coming into the industry with no godfather and ruling the roost.
Nargis Fakhri
This goofy yet stunning actress who is half Pakistani and half Czech made her debut in Imtiaz Ali’s Rockstar in 2011. She’s also been a contestant on America’s Next Top Model but got eliminated early on. Post Rockstar, she’s worked on Madras Cafe and Main Tera Hero. She’s also done two rocking dance numbers – Yaar Na Miley from Kick and Dhating Naach from Phata Poster Nikhla Hero. More than her films, Nargis has been in the news for her on and off relationship status with Uday Chopra. While 2014 was quite slow for her, here is hoping 2015 is a better year.
Amy Jackson
This cat-eyed model made her debut in south Indian films before getting launched in Bollywood in Ekk Deewana Tha in 2012. She disappeared post that to work down south and her latest release has been I, a Tamil romantic thriller by Shankar. Amy was dating Prateik Babbar for some time and they even got a pair of ridiculous tattoos which we’re sure would have been more painful to remove post their breakup.
Jacqueline Fernandez
This former mass media student, journalist and Miss Sri Lanka Universe 2006, made her acting debut in 2009 in Aladin which bombed at the box office. She then appeared in Murder 2 Housefull 2 and Race 2 both of which did really well at the box office. In 2014, Fernandez bagged the lead role in Kick opposite Salman Khan. This film gave her the much needed boost in her career as it was the biggest commercial grosser of the year. With the fashion industry’s eyes firmly on her, a best friendship with Sonam Kapoor and multiple brand endorsements like (The Body Shop and Scholl) Jacqueline has firmly made Bollywood her home.
