New Delhi, June 4 (IANS) Katrina Kaif has proved that she is more than just a glam doll, as the actress earned rave reviews for her role of a politician in Prakash Jha’s “Raajneeti”.

Katrina, who is seen in a de-glam role in the film, has won praise for her acting prowess as per the reviews of the film.

Talking about her performance in “Raajneeti”, acclaimed critic Taran Adarsh said: “Katrina Kaif is first-rate. The sincerity and earnestness shows in every sequence. She sheds her glam doll image and transforms into an actor with this film.”

“Katrina has often been synonymous with candy floss roles but with ‘Raajneeti’ she is out to prove that she is here for the acting. In the film she plays a character whose life changes dramatically and she handles it well. Additionally, her beauty doesn’t overshadow her performance,” said a trade analyst.

The 25-year-old beauty, who has delivered a string of hits playing the urban young woman in films like “Namaste London”, “Singh is Kinng” and “Ajab Prem Ki Gajab Kahani” has silenced her critics with her performance in the new film.

“Katrina’s popularity is soaring by the day. Often topping polls of beauty and sex appeal her contemporaries have much to worry about since she just proved her acting prowess,” the analyst added.

Shot in Bhopal, “Raajneeti” is the story of a fiercely fought election campaign where money power and corruption are the accepted norms and where treachery and manipulation are routinely used weapons.
