Katrina Kaif worked hard on her skills when she joined the Hindi film industry about twenty years ago. On the latest episode of Mid-day’s Sit With Hitlist, the actress recalls the hard work she had to put in to learn Hindi as well as acquire dancing skills in order to become a Bollywood heroine.

The actress insists she always spoke her own lines in her films and never used a dubbing artist. “It’s just hard work. It was Jackie Shroff who first told me learn to read Devanagari. And that was very important for me because in the first few films at that time the directors would write the lines on the set and give it to you. A lot of them would write in Devanagari and I never wanted to be in that position where I didn’t know what to do.
