Katrina's Barbie Doll To Hit The Market Soon

Katrina Kaif look-alike Barbie Dolls will hit the Indian stores on March 20. And the actress has already drawn up a list of people whom she's going to give her first batch of Barbies to.

Topping the list is her niece Maya and Farah Khan's triplets Anya, Czar and Diva.

"The first doll will go to my sister's two-and-a-half year-old daughter Maya because she is obsessed with Barbie. I'm going to London for a couple of days for work. I'll give her the doll then," said Katrina.

Katrina also plans to give the dolls to her directors Zoya Khan and Farah Khan. While three Barbie dolls will go to Farah's kids,of whom Czar is a huge fan of the actress, Katrina wants Zoya also (Zindagi Na Mile Dobaara) to line her shelves with her dolls.

"There are other tots on the give-away list too. Kabir Khan's daughter Sairah," says Katrina.

"She's just three but sings to Sheila ki Jawani with all the words and does the steps too. That's where my real compliment comes from," the actress added.

Katrina elaborated, "I will give my doll personally to all my friends in the film industry. Ali Zafar (Mere Brother Ki Dulhan's director) asked me where would he put that doll? But I snapped office or home everyone should have one doll of mine!" she laughed.

The launch of the Katrina Kaif Barbie dolls at stores will be followed by a fashion show and launch of a video introducing the doll. While the initial doll will feature as Katrina the movie star, there are plans to launch her look-alike Barbies in various other avatars too.

Katrina says, "It's a very special moment for me. It's the first time that an Asian actress has been chosen to feature in the Barbie range.My sisters are more proud of this achievement than of any of my films, which they don't have much knowledge of. But who hasn't heard of a Barbie doll?"

Ranbir, Katrina on a date!

Katrina has been cribbing how the press goes on and on about her relationship with Ranbir without any photographic evidence. So we did the needful

On Monday, we read in a section of the media that she is genuinely tired of news reports of her proximity to Ranbir Kapoor and she says the reports are even more disturbing because no one really has any photographic evidence of them together.

As soon as we read this, we sent our sleuths scouting for the evidence, which Katrina so categorically wished to be presented.
Well, here it is, Katrina! A few days ago you were with Ranbir at a 5-star hotel in Santacruz East.
You were seated to his right.

Both of you looked rather happy in each other's company (For reference to context, see Picture 1).
A few days prior to this, you were again with him having coffee and cold drinks.
Both of you again looked very happy in each other's company. (For reference to context, see Picture 2).
To add to our practicals we had told you that you spent quality time with Ranbir at a Juhu nightspot.
We had an eyewitness report, which we are sure you read. Over to you now, Katz.
Have we mirrored your relationship well enough? And please don't bring out that old toy called 'We're just good friends'.

Tax officials raid at houses of Katrina, Priyanka

Priyanka Chopra and Katrina Kaif might have ruled Bollywood last year but that is going to disturb their peaceful life this year. This Monday morning started with a shocking event for both these leading ladies of Bollywood. Income Tax department officials have started raid at the residential and office premise of both the actresses this morning.

The reports suggest that the officials are still conducting the raids. They have started it under some information and it has reportedly come from some credible sources. There is a speculation that the I.T department has got some tax evasion reports by these two actresses. However, nothing has been confirmed officially yet.

The two hottest properties of Bollywood have earned quite a big amount last year from their various endorsement deals apart from the movies. The I.T officials have also not denied about the chances of the actresses possessing some unreported wealth. If these cases come true then the financial managers of Priyanka and Katrina might also face I.T wrath.

However, it will be too early to draw conclusion on this issue. So let's wait till any official announcement is made from the I.T department.

We hope, the actresses come clean because they have many promising releases in the coming days and fans would not like to see them under any blemish at this point of time.
