The pretty actress who always been portrayed as a girl next door, is for the first time sporting a gothic grunge look with a stud pierced below her lip, dreadlocks and tattoos all over her arms.

Kat's look has been designed to complement Zayed's character in the film - that of a daredevil biker.

Says a source form the production team, ''Kat was extremely excited about her new look as it's a huge contrast from her earlier roles. She gave a lot of inputs and worked closely with the designers on minute details.''

But one thing that gave nightmares to Kat is her hairdo! The dreadlocks that she sports cause a lot of damage to one's hair and Kat was very particular about that.

''She'd immediately go for a hair wash once the shoot would be over'' says a source from the team.

Ask Kat about her striking appearance in BLUE and the actress gives all the credit to her designer Rocky S who gave her the confidence to pull off the look so stunningly!

Now, we sure can't wait to see Katrina in this new, rugged avatar, can we!
