Bollywood's new queen

MOVE over Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. There is a new contender for the throne of Bollywood's reigning queen.

British-Indian model-turned-actress Katrina Kaif has gone, in seven years, from a nobody in Bollywood to the babe who launched a thousand billboards.

She is the face of India's first Barbie doll, which goes into production in September this year. The 24-year-old beat Aishwarya to the contract.
