Katrina fights loneliness pangs

After a spate of hits, Katrina Kaif may be riding high on her career front but that is in no way a compensation for leading a lonely life without family in Mumbai. Considering that the Mumbai film industry can get awfully cold for an out-of-town girl and the constant work-related travel in recent times, Katrina had begun to feel the absence of a strong support system in Mumbai.

Living alone also took its toll on her health when last month the actress was diagnosed with jaundice and a low hemoglobin count. A close friend of the actress said, “To be alone in Mumbai where no one asks about your health seriously and neighbours don’t even know your name, is bad enough. But for a celebrity like Katrina it’s even worse. People around her presumed she wanted to be left alone when in fact she needed comfort and company during her illness.”

That’s when Katrina made up her mind to call her mother Suzanne Turquotte to Mumbai to be with her. “It wasn’t an overnight decision. She didn’t want to pull her mother away from her social work in Chennai, but being alone was getting to Katrina. Being successful is fine but unlike other actresses her age, she had no one to return home to,” added the friend.
Earlier this week, Katrina’s mom joined the actress in Mumbai. The change in her mood, attitude and lifestyle was almost immediate. She’s now eating well and runs off to work every morning knowing someone is waiting for her back home. “Yeah, my mom is with me,” said Katrina happily from the Mumbai airport yesterday morning before she headed to Dubai for a brief appearance at a live performance. “If I feel strong enough to make this trip, it’s because my mother is at home. I know I have her to go back to. I admit it can get terribly lonely in Mumbai.”

SEPULUH ALASAN KENAPA BUNDA JELITA

Semua orang berkata Bundaku jelita. Dan aku hanya bisa menahan kesal tiap kali mereka berkata ,” Kamu tak secantik bundamu.”

Apa yang harus kulakukan untuk bisa secantik Bunda? Dan bagaimana ia bisa secantik itu? Tanyaku penasaran. Tapi aku tak juga menemukan jawaban hingga bertahun-tahun kemudian, saat masa kanak-kanak telah jadi kenangan dan masa dewasaku datang.


Pertama, untuk jadi secantik Bunda harus cerewet dan bisa mencubit sampai membekas. Bukan cerewet dan cubitan biasa yang hanya menimbulkan kebencian dan rasa sakit setelahnya. Tapi kecerewetan dan cubitan sayang yang disertai nasehat panjang lebar berisi kebaikan tiap kali kau melakukan kesalahan. Tak pernah bosan untuk mengulang meski balasannya gerutuan kesal yang berbunyi ,”Bunda jahat! Bunda jelek! Bunda nggak sayang aku!”

Kedua, kau juga harus bisa menjewer telinga sampai panas. Tentu saja tak sekedar jeweran yang memerahkan telinga, tapi ada ajaran penting yang ia tiupkan kedalamnya. Seperti kalimat-kalimat-Kau tak boleh malas, harus rajin belajar supaya pintar. Kalau kau pintar kaulah yang akan mengambil manfaatnya, bukan Bunda. Mungkin kau tak bisa merasakannya sekarang, tapi kelak saat kau dewasa kau akan mengetahuinya dan bla…bla…bla…”-yang tak pernah lekang diucapkan meski aku sering berkata ,” Duh, Bunda…kenapa sih berdengung terus seperti lebah mencari mangsa?”


Ketiga, jadi Bunda harus bisa menjalani profesi apa saja. Mulai dari perawat, dokter, koki terhebat, guru matematika, guru bahasa, penata gaya, dan berbagai profesi lainnya yang jika dikerjakan oleh seorang professional selangit harganya! Sementara Bundaku hanya meminta bayaran terima kasih atau senyuman dari anak-anaknya tersayang, yang jujur saja jarang kami ungkapkan.


Keempat, jadi Bunda juga harus bisa menjadi Psikolog kapanpun diperlukan. Mendengarkan keluhan klien-klien kecilnya yang menyebalkan, lalu memberi dorongan, agar mereka bisa tegak berjalan. Bahkan pelukan yang menenangkan di saat mereka membutuhkan. Padahal ia sering kali tak mendapatkan porsi yang sama di saat ia sendiri di tengah kegalauan.


Kelima, jadi Bunda berarti sekolah besar bagi anak-anaknya. Dimana ia meletakkan dasar-dasar pendidikan sebelum masa sekolah tiba dan ada guru-guru yang akan melanjutkan pendidikannya mereka. Bila saat itu tiba, ia akan berpindah dari posisi depan kelas ke samping anak-anaknya. Tak pernah lepas perhatian, selalu mengikuti perkembangan belajarnya, sambil terus mengajarkan pengetahuan yang ia ketahuinya meski sering dicemooh sebagai guru yang kaku dan terlalu kuno oleh anak-anaknya. “ Tak apa kau jika menurutmu demikian, tapi percayalah pelajaran dari orang yang menurut kalian kuno ini akan terpakai juga pada masanya,” bisik Bunda sembari menaikkan selimut anak-anaknya.


Keenam, jadi Bunda juga harus jago mengelola keuangan. Seolah penjaga gawang, bunda harus handal melakukan tugasnya agar tak kebobolan. Dipusingkan dengan setumpuk rekening yang harus dibayar dan berbagai kebutuhan ia harus bijak memutar otak, memastikan keuangan mereka akan aman dari awal bulan hingga penghabisan. Jika tidak, bisa-bisa pada tengah bulan kau hanya akan menemukan sambal dan kerupuk untukmu makan. Atau yang terburuk kau tak bisa bersekolah setinggi awan, sebab tak ada dana untuk membiayai pendidikanmu yang kian hari kian membesar.


Ketujuh, jadi Bunda ternyata harus tangguh. Kau pernah dengar bukan bila dulu Tuhan menciptakan kaum hawa dari tulang rusuk pria, tapi pada kenyataannya aku telah melihatnya bermetamorfosis menjadi tulang punggung yang menegakkan dengan tampil dan maju ke depan demi keluarganya yang tersayang. Bekerja membanting tulang, membantu ayah disaat beliau kesulitan.


Ke delapan, jadi Bunda juga harus selalu cantik. Meski pun tanpa polesan make up mahal serta perhiasan emas, intan dan berlian di badan. Lalu dengan apa? Dengan senyuman yang ia sunggingkan di tiap kesempatan. Senyuman yang bermakna aku mencintaimu pada satu waktu, aku mendukungmu di jam berikutnya, aku mengerti apa maksudmu di saat lainnya, atau aku turut bahagia saat kami berteriak gembira tatkala bisa meraih sesuatu dengan tangan kami sendiri.


Ke sembilan, jadi Bunda itu tak boleh cengeng. Seperti apapun kesedihannya, Bunda mengajari kami untuk kuat menghadapi pasang surut kehidupan di dunia. Saat bahagia ia menunjukkan pada kami untuk bersiaga, saat sedih ia mengajari kami untuk tertawa.


Ke sepuluh, jadi Bunda ternyata harus tahan dengan kerepotan. Sebab meski anak-anak sudah besar, dipandang bisa mandiri dalam mengarungi samudera kehidupan tak berarti Bunda bisa melepas mereka tanpa pengawasan. Ada saja hal-hal yang terjadi dan mereka harus pulang demi mendengar nasehat-nasehat berharganya agar bisa membaca peta kehidupan yang kadang tak mudah untuk diterjemahkan.


Sekarang aku tahu kenapa Bunda bisa sedemikian jelita. Gabungan antara kecantikan alami dan kebijakan itulah yang membuat kejelitaannya sulit kutandingi. Apalagi jika hanya berbekal make up, baju bagus pembungkus raga, atau bahkan gelar sarjana. Untuk bisa sepertinya, aku harus membuktikan diri dulu bertahun-tahun lamanya dengan sejumlah besar cinta dan pengorbanan untuk keluarga. Bisakah aku menirunya? Kurasa dengan tugas sebesar itu aku membutuhkan bantuannya.


Terima kasih Bunda. Kurasa masih banyak alasan yang bisa menggambarkan kenapa Bunda sangat jelita. Maafkan aku jika hanya menulis sepuluh diantaranya. Peluk cium dari kami semua, Afin, Wendy, Raka.

Untuk Bunda…

Katrina will only make apperance in Dubai and not perform


Katrina Kaif is quickly recovering from jaundice, which had her bed-ridden recently. The actress is gearing up for an appearance in Dubai later this week. She was to perform to her latest hits from Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani and De Dana Dan. But now, she will only be making an appearance at the event.

Kat was rushed to the hospital last Tuesday and was diagnosed with low haemoglobin is now rehearsing for the show. Doctors advised Kat complete bed rest for a week. She even missed out on the promotions of her film De Dana Dan, which released last week. Now after seven days of rest, she seems to have regained her strength and will make her first public appearance later this week for a function in Dubai.

Home for the hols
Later this month, Kat will join her family in United Kingdom for the Christmas and New Year holidays. The actress apparently doesn't have any new films starting till May next year so she can take it easy.

Katrina says, "They have asked me to make an appearance instead of a performance now. It will take a few more weeks to get back to be normal though. So, am just taking it easy for now."

Katrina yet to see her look alike



Salman Khan is writing blog and showing promos of his upcoming film Veer to everyone, but her girl friend Katrina Kaif has not seen it yet.

Salman has written story of the film 20 years back and it is his most ambitious project so far. Promos of Veer were released in theaters with Katrina’s film De Dana Dan, which released last Friday. Film stars newcomer Zarin Khan who looks like Katrina Kaif

Salman has already shown the movie to his father writer Salim Khan and has got appreciation for his work. In fact he started film’s publicity campaign on his father’s birthday.

Film marks debut of Zarin Khan in bollywood and she has striking resemblance to Katrina Kaif. Recently when someone asked Katrina about her reaction to Veer’s Promos, she said that she has yet to see the promos of Veer.
She didn’t mince the words and said that Salman has not shown him the promos so far. Whenever Katrina’s film is up for release the entire Khan family makes sure they are there to support her.
Is it because the heroine Zarine Khan has a striking resemblance to Katrina that Salman has not yet shown the promos to her?

Akshay-Katrina Rain Song back in De Dana Dan


CLICK HERE TO VIEW ALL WALLPAPERS OF THIS SONG
The inevitable has happened. Owing to popular demand, 'Gale Lag Ja' - the rain song and dance number featuring the lead pair of Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif - has been added to the film's narrative.

Though this much hyped song had created quite some buzz en route to the release of De Dana Dan, it was chopped off from the final copy of the print since it was adding to the film's length. However, the makers of De Dana Dan were open to the idea of incorporating the song as an added bonus if audiences demanded so and the film worked at the box office. With weekend collections being quite strong worldwide, the final call was taken around bringing back the song in the narrative.

Confirms Ratan Jain, producer of De Dana Dan, "We were clear that the song would be added only if the film did well at the box office. There was no point doing that if (God forbid) people wouldn't have been going into theatres. Now that the weekend collections are out, we know that there would be repeat audiences for the film. For them, it would be another incentive to watch the film again while for the first timers, it's an added bonus."

Since the film's running length is a little less than 3 hours already, would the incorporation of song be of any further impact?

"No", says Jain, "The length of De Dana Dan is still the same. To compensate for those 4-5 minutes of the added song, we have edited an equal duration of a few scenes from the film."

'Gale Lag Ja' would now appear in the first half of the film at the point when Akshay calls Katrina to the hotel in order to share the kidnapping plan and then run away with the ransom amount.

Meanwhile, Ratan Jain is ecstatic with the kind of collections that the film is showing with every passing day.

"Saturday and Sunday were far better than Friday while Monday was more or less similar to Friday, which is superb", he says, "Normally, films fall quite rapidly on Monday but we have stayed on very stable grounds. The collections are superb overseas as well, whether in UK, Gulf or elsewhere. In India, we have seen Rs. 23 crores coming in just from the weekend which is superb. All our distributors are very happy and we are all set for a bountiful first week."

When Katrina donned a burqa

If last week it was her sizzling sexy saree that made the news, Katrina Kaif stunned everyone when she visited the Ajmer Sharif clad in a Burqa. Katrina was accompanied by Salman Khan's sister Alvira Khan both of whom landed at the Kishangarh airstrip on a chartered plane. All her fans waited for her outside the dargah and surrounded her when she went inside it. Katrina was in Ajmer shrine to pray for the success of her latest release De Dana Dan.
Katrina seems to have made a habit to visit Ajmer Sharif praying for success of her movies. Just about a month back she had gone there to pray for the success of Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani. In June this year Katrina had made a trip to pray for the success of New York
. It may be recalled Katrina had created controversy during her first visit to Ajmer Sharif to pray for Namastey London. Katrina had worn a short skirt in the holy place which had created lots of furore.
