She
is
one
of
the
top
stars
in
the
Hindi
film
industry
and
now
Katrina
Kaif
is
planning
to
share
her
journey,
which
was
full
of
ups
and
downs,
in
the
form
a
book.
The
actor,
who
made
her
Bollywood
debut
with
2003
film
"Boom" was
initially
criticised
for
her
acting
abilities
and
dancing
skills,
but
she
has
come
a
long
way.
When
asked
how
she
handled
herself
in
an
industry
which
was
alien
to
her,
Katrina
said
she
is
saving
the
answer
for
now.
"I
educated
myself
(about
the
industry)
but
I
might
write
a
book
(on
it),
so
I
won't
waste
the
answer
now.
I
seriously
might
write
a
book,"
she
told
PTI.
Though
the
actor
has
had
some
of
the
biggest
blockbusters
to
her
credit,
most
recently
being
"Tiger
Zinda
Hai",
she
has
also
seen
low
phases
in
her
career,
spanning
nearly
15
years.
Katrina,
however,
considers
the
setbacks
as
the
stepping
stones
to
her
success.
"You
need
to
have
a
balanced
attitude
to
life,
need
to
accept
that
failures,
hardships
and
hard
times
--
for
me
definitely
--
they
are
the
biggest
teachers.
They
(failures)
are
the
biggest
steps.
Once
you
get
there,
then
you
reach
higher.
You
need
them.
Hardship
and
failures
taught
me
to
evolve
and
reach
the
next
step,"
she
said.
"I
am
constantly
trying
to
educate
myself
by
reading
about
peoples' journeys,
taking
care
of
my
mind
and
making
sure
I
am
evolving
as
a
person
and
not
just
accepting
whatever
thoughts
come
to
my
mind,"
she
added.
Katrina
said
she
never
had
a
plan
B
for
her
career
as
she
always
dreamt
of
being
a
movie
star.
"There
was
no
back-up
plan.
Having
a
plan
B
is
like
accepting
failure.
I
have
never
had
a
plan
B
for
anything.
You
can
say
that
is
not
the
correct
way
to
go
(about
something)
maybe,"
she
said.
Katrina,
who
became
the
face
of
an
NGO
supporting
girls
education,
said
there
is
disparity
in
basic
education
between
the
privileged
and
the
underprivileged.
"The
more
we
ignore
it,
the
more
we
are
living
in
denial," she
said.
