Last
Friday
(March
12,
2021),
Katrina
Kaif's
sister
Isabelle
Kaif
made
her
debut
on
the
silver
screen
with
Time
To
Dance
opposite
Sooraj
Pancholi.
Unfortunately,
the
film
failed
to
pull
crowd
at
the
theatres
and
couldn't
do
well
at
the
box
office.
In
an
interview
with
a
leading
daily,
Isabelle
opened
up
about
her
Bollywood
journey,
and
revealed
how
her
actress-sister
influenced
her.
Isabelle
also
revealed
her
favourite
B-town
actress
and
said
that
Kajol
is
her
favourite.
"Bollywood
has
been
on
my
mind
since
childhood.
I
have
seen
so
many
Hindi
movies...
I
can't
tell
you
how
many
times
my
mom
made
me
watch
Lagaan," added
Isabelle.
Speaking
about
her
sister
Katrina,
Isabelle
said
that
from
a
very
early
age,
Katrina
was
sure
that
she
wanted
to
pursue
a
career
in
acting.
"I
was
definitely
influenced
by
her
journey.
I
was
a
dancer
when
I
was
young,
and
when
I
saw
Katrina
acting
in
movies,
it
helped
me
broaden
my
interest.
It
is
then
that
I
started
doing
theatre.
That's
where
I
discovered
my
passion
for
acting,
and
even
as
a
kid,
I
always
had
that
bug
in
me
to
be
a
performer.
Seeing
Katrina
do
it
gave
me
further
courage
to
give
it
a
shot,"
added
Isabelle.
The
30-year-old
actress
also
shared
with
the
daily
that
before
making
her
debut,
she
had
earlier
worked
as
an
assistant
director
for
music
videos,
web
shows,
ad
commercials
and
movies
while
staying
in
the
US.
Sharing
one
advice
that
Katrina
gave
her,
Isabelle
said,
"When
I
came
to
Mumbai,
Katrina
told
me
that
I
have
to
work
really
hard.
She's
told
me
that
it's
always
a
bit
bigger
(larger-than-life)
in
movies
than
in
real
life."
In
the
same
interview,
Isabelle
also
spoke
about
Salman
Khan,
with
whom
she
shares
a
special
bond
and
considers
him
as
her
mentor.
She
said
that
the
Dabangg
actor
has
always
helped
her,
given
her
great
advice
and
has
been
extremely
encouraging
and
supportive.
"When
I
was
starting
this
project,
he
asked
me
to
work
hard
on
my
lines
and
performance,"
asserted
Isabelle.
With
respect
to
work,
Isabelle
already
has
two
projects
in
her
kitty-
Kwatha
and
Suswagatam
Khushaamadeed.
