Katrina misses Akshay Kumar

Still on a high after performing at the recently concluded IIFA in Bangkok, Katrina Kaif is enjoying the wishes and accolades that are coming her way. Dancing to a medley of her hit numbers, Katrina's biggest regret is, "I wish Akshay Kumar could have joined me on stage, but as he flew in a night before, we could not rehearse together."

Although she did not win any award for her histrionics, she grabbed the style icon award at the IIFA. And it was no surprise as she has just won FHM's Sexiest Woman of the year. Kats was voted at the No. 1 spot in FHM India's 100 Sexiest Women in the World poll, fending off competition from the likes of Hollywood superstars Angelina Jolie and Scarlett Johansson, singers Rihanna and Madonna, Bollywood superstars like Kareena Kapoor, Deepika Padukone and Bipasha Basu, supermodels like Adriana Lima and Gisele Bundchen, amongst several other sexy and successful women in the world.

"I think it's a nice thing that people have taken the time out to vote for me as FHM 's Sexiest Woman in the World, and that's what makes this really special to me," said Katrina Kaif. "This poll is something you have to smile about – it's fun, it's sweet – and I'm really happy to have won this."

After a whirlwind shoot of Vipul Shah's Singh is Kinng, which was shot across the three continents of Asia, Africa and Australia, Kats will be planning for her Yashraj film. Not bad for a girl who was written off as just another english speaking phirangi trying her hand at hindi films.
