Katrina Kaif's beauty secrets revealed - MSN India

By Simply Woman, IndiaToday, Updated: 23/01/2012Katrina Kaif on her expectations from the New Year, her fitness regime and beauty secrets.

Like everyone else, the New Year is all about starting afresh for me. I don't believe in making resolutions, I believe in making goals because the moment one misses the mark on a resolution, one feels like a failure. With a goal, a missed mark is just a temporary setback. The difference lies in mentality-one is psychologically devastating, and the other can be mobilising.

The year 2012 is an exciting yet hectic time for me. The release of movies like Ek Tha Tiger, Dhoom 3 and the Dostana sequel are going to keep me on my toes. Also there will be shooting schedules, various other personal and professional commitments that will keep me extremely busy all year round.

I did not plan such a busy year, but it just happened to be so because of my professional commitments. I took on all my projects after listening to the scripts, focusing on the characters, and liking all the facets of experimentation that a role had to offer. So it's natural for me to be excited as not only am I part of mega projects, but I also look forward to working harder in 2012.

While working hard and keeping really long hours round the clock, my challenge this year will be to ensure that I take time out for myself for a work-out that involves yoga. It keeps me fresh and fit and I believe that a healthy mind and a healthy diet are mandatory if you want to be beautiful. My beauty regime is quite simple.

When not shooting, I never wear make-up and I keep things natural. I start my day with four glasses of water, avoid foods with starch and focus on having fresh boiled vegetables. If I get hungry, I eat fruits. The way one looks, honestly, has a lot to do with how one feels.

When one is at peace with themselves, it immediately reflects on their face. I believe in inner peace and that is happiness for me. The sense of contentment, being grounded and the realisation that you are important just the way you are, no more or no less, is the kind of wholesome beauty that I strive to achieve and propagate.
