Neymar’s ex-girlfriend hopes to be a Bollywood actress

The American actor, model, and singer Natalia Barulich, came to the limelight back in 2020 while she was dating the Brazilian football star Neymar Jr. The model has now travelled to India in hopes to become a Bollywood actress.

According to media outlets, Natalia is already taking lessons in Hindi language. Moreover, a professional Ballet dancer with 16 years of experience, she is now learning the classical dance Kathak, and taking acting classes.

Speaking about ventures in India, the dancer said, "I have always wanted to come to India. I am in love with the culture, the people, spirituality and Bollywood. There could be projects in the pipeline, but that's in God's hands. I don't think there's a Latina in Bollywood. I think Bollywood needs one. I am picking up Hindi and enjoying my Kathak classes. It is a difficult dance form, as the footwork is very fast and the spins are tough, but I am learning it."

She also professed to being a Katrina Kaif fan. She added, "I enjoy watching Bollywood films. I am a big fan of Katrina Kaif, she's my idol and I hope to meet her someday. I also like Salman Khan. In fact, I like Bollywood stars more than Hollywood actors. I recently saw 'Pathaan', and I was blown away seeing Shah Rukh Khan doing action and how stunning Deepika looked."

When talking about her previous relationship, the actress/model mentioned that she does not share a bitter relationship with the football player, rather she would invite him over to her movie premiere if she starred in one.
