Watched bits of the first IV and at the end she said she grew up in India... 😲

Did some research. She was born in Hong Kong. Their family traveled a lot. They lived in China, Japan, France, Switzerland, Belgium, Poland and London. She came to India when she was 14 along with her mother. Her mother is a social worker who lives in Chennai. She complete her high school in India. Then she went on to live in New York where she took acting classes and then in LA. Now she is back in India and is currently working on improving her Hindi diction. That might explain her accent. I have seen many expats in India or in foreign countries picking up the local accent. Nothing surprising there.

Is there anything real about the Turquottes starting with their surnames, accent or skin?

I don't know about her Indian accent but the Kaif sisters have a weird unplaceable accent. It's not on one of the hundreds of British accents or Australian or American or what have you.

Mehhh... I'm just not excited about her whatsoever. Tho she is film school trained, will give her a chance, a small one.

Also, thought it was funny how the Zoom reporters in the third video were calling her EASSABEL. 😆

Here's a video of an Austrian who's been living in India and she has an Indian accent:

- Not defending anyone -

Katrina's accent has been changing a lot all these years so why not her sister's? If they were just trying to indianise their accent to fit in, I would be okay with it but they DO NOT want to fit in. They just want to keep that foreign appeal while maybe staying in the country rubs off a little on them? lol
