Career
At the age of 14, Kaif started modeling for a jewelry campaign in London and was subsequently discovered by filmmaker
Kaizad Gustad, who gave her a part in his film Boom. She moved to Mumbai and was offered a number of modeling
assignments. However, filmmakers were at first hesitant to sign her because of her linguistic shortcoming, such as her
inability to speak Hindi. Films that did feature her usually had her voice dubbed over by a native speaker of the film's
language. This changed with the film, Namastey London, alongside Akshay Kumar and later Apne, in which she dubbed
her own lines.
