Katrina: I try to support women who are around me as much as I can in my work space

Katrina Kaif is one of the leading actresses in Bollywood. She is counted among the actresses whose fame has reached to a different height. The actress has been signed opposite country’s superstars. She will be seen in Thugs Of Hindostan with Sana Shaikh, Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan and Zero with Anushka Sharma and Shah Rukh Khan. During a media interaction, Katrina Kaif was asked about her equation with industry colleagues, to which Katrina said, “Recently, I’ve become more aware of this, even subconsciously, do we really support our contemporaries- in whatever industry you’re in? I try to support women who are around me as much as I can in my work space. Sometimes a competitive mindset can actually stop you from doing that.”

“Am I lifting up the women around me, am I doing what I can to support, encourage or to help them grow? Rather than just see what they can do for me, I do whatever I can to encourage them to better in their profession,” she added.


Katrina supports her friends which also includes Alia Bhatt. Talking about the same, she recently had said, “I feel proud of the work that Alia is doing. Honestly, I don’t know others very well. Are there movie roles and maybe a few endorsements that are going to Alia now, for which I would have been the first choice? 100 percent. And is that the way things work or the way things should work? Yes, they should. She is 22 and I am not.”

Tom Jones's "refresh" excuse isn't new, ITV used it on Anne-Marie too

Highlights:

  • Sir Tom Jones says ITV fired him from The Voice UK, ending an association with the show that's run on and off since its 2012 launch.
  • In a statement posted to social media, Jones said the reason given was "a financial difficulty with insurance," and that a new coaching line-up left no chair for him.
  • ITV has reportedly lined up Aitch and Cheryl Tweedy as new coaches, alongside returning names Kelly Rowland and will.i.am, as part of a wider panel refresh.

Tom Jones didn't find out from ITV directly, or at least not in a way he felt was clear enough. The 86-year-old singer has revealed he's been fired from The Voice UK, in a statement that made plain he wasn't the one who chose to go.

What did Tom Jones actually say?

He was direct about it. "I did not want to leave The Voice," Jones wrote, insisting the decision was ITV's alone, made some time ago and only communicated to him recently. He said the reason given was an insurance issue, before ITV's own public framing shifted to wanting a "refresh" of the coaching panel, one that left no seat for him. He was offered a smaller role instead, appearing occasionally rather than coaching from the start of the series, an offer he said he wasn't thrilled about. He closed his statement with a pointed observation about his age, essentially noting that there's simply no good moment to let go of someone in his late eighties who's still doing the job well.
