Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif plays an NRI girl in her upcoming film ‘New York’. The actress empathizes with her character in the film as she has also faced similar type of isolation due to her skin color while she was growing up in London.
The film made her remember her college days in London which she had to spend in constant consciousness of her racial identity.
But in India, the 24-year old beauty has been voted as the sexiest Asian woman for two consecutive years.
“When I was in college in London that had a lot of Asians, I was always very aware of the colour of my skin, that I was an Asian. There was this certain kind of segregation in
the college,” Katrina revealed.
“This is some seven or eight years ago, I think it does go on,” Katrina said.
And it is because of this personal experience of hers, she feels that she can closely relate to the character in the film.
“Omar (played by Neil Nitin Mukesh) is a character who comes from India, my and Sam`s character (played by John Abraham) are already kind of friends in the college. There is a certain kind of gelling together because they all are coming from the same place,” Katrina said.
