Meanwhile, Katrina has set a new norm of birthday wishes by wishing herself. She shared a photo from the beach posing in a white swimsuit at the beach. The image had a caption of emojis - Birthday cake, Mexican flag, and a yellow heart emoticon. Katrina is enjoying her vacation in Mexico with her mother Suzanne Turquotte, sisters and a few close friends.

A source informed mid-day, "It is a double celebration for Katrina as her career has also witnessed an upward spiral. With Bharat winning her accolades, she is feeling reassured and is in a great space professionally. So, she wanted to take a break from the chaotic life of Mumbai and let her hair down with her near and dear ones. She will bring in her birthday with an intimate seaside party at a well-known beach club in the area."

The source adds that it's all work for Kaif once she returns to the bay later this month. "She has been considering launching her production house for a while, and has finally decided to set the ball rolling on it."
