It seems the Barbie war is going to the next level as the vivacious beauty; Katrina Kaif is finally getting the honour of being the one. The toy brand Mattel has decided to design a Barbie with Katrina's face as a mark of celebration of their 50th year.

Recently on the honour for the same Kats was on cloud nine as she said, "I'm flattered when I heard this news. I think this is the best way to get connected to the fans and kids."

The dolls will be launched in the stores by December this year but the actress wont be able to see the procedure of the making as she is busy finishing her other commitments. "Every girl has grown up playing with Barbie dolls, and so have I. It feels great", adds Kaif.

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan was first approached with the same offer but due to her other commitments she could not take it.

During the press conference when Aishwarya was asked by the media, how she felt about Katrina's Barbies hitting the market in first week of December, Aishwarya immediately replied that she was the original choice for Barbie.

Aishwarya said, "I was asked by that brand (Barbie), not just now but, I think, since Miss World, then at the turn of millennium, then when my films were raging success after Canes and this year was the fourth time actually that I was requested by Barbie to walk the ramp on a particular day."

"But I was a committed professional working with Vipul Shah and he needed my date on that day so I was unable to accept that offer to walk the ramp that particular day for them."

Aishwarya Rai revealed that she did not regret not becoming a Barbie girl and wished Katrina Kaif good luck for her Barbies.

Katrina will be the 1st Indian celebrity to be designed as a Barbie doll and sure everyone is eagerly waiting for these dolls to hit the stores.
