When Katrina spoke about her Punjabi family’s warmth

She fondly recalled how her Mummy Ji would lovingly encourage her to indulge in hearty Punjabi parathas. The actress said, “Initially, Mummy Ji used to urge me a lot to have parathas and since I’m on a diet, I couldn’t have them, so I used to just take a bite.
