Katrina still doesn't have a hang of Hindi??? - Page 2

If she wanted to learn she would have - its clear she doesnt care about it nor do the people who make movies with her.

But I dont see why she needs to be applauded for coming to India and becoming a star here. She was just lucky that's it.

I just feel it is difficult to make a place in peoples heart, understand the culture and still make it big here. I would say the same for Frieda Pinto (for example) she was able to make a place for herself in a differnt country I do applaud her luck or talent or whatever it is to make it big in a place where you are new.

I am sure she understand hindi but you feel shy to speak in that language because you think people will make fun of you.

Trust me it will take you a long time to learn a new language especially when you are the only one in the family learning that language and unless you dedicate a lot of time in to reading books, watching movies or take the help of a tutor you won't learn. It's not as easy we think it is.

the only way to become proficient in a language is to communicate in it, yes you can read books, watch movies etc, but without practice, one cannot gain fluency... and really, 8 years is more than enough time, if anything.. being able to speak in Hindi will help her to connect with a much larger audience off-screen.

she does understand it now and she can probably speak it okay but i think she is a bit self consious because she doesnt want ppl to mock her if she says something wrongg in hindi. thats how i wuld feel if i was in her place

Her hindi isnt as bad as people like to make out, she has improved over the years - its her pronunciation and the accent twang that people have a problem with.

I find it quite amusing that people have problems with Kat's language skills when she's playing an Indian, but its fine for other actors and actresses to play Brit-asians, Americans etc but with an Indian accent. Anushka in Patiala House springs to mind.

i think she should make an effort to learn it.

I can understand what you are saying. But for me she has always claimed to be Indian so I can't equate her to Frieda making a niche for herself in the West.Ofcourse Frieda does not have evan 25% ofthe star status that Katrina has. so IMo they are very different.And again its not like she was a huge star in England and she came to Bollywood to proove herself.She is hardworking for sure and that i applaud.

is it Katrina's week 😆

btw, katrinas accent doesnt sound british, its more american/trying to sound kinda indian becase if u dont then u stand out like a sore thumb sorta thing.
