Who is Jacqueline Fernandez?
Jacqueline Genevieve Fernandez is one of Bollywood’s most glamorous and internationally recognised actresses. Born on August 11, 1985 in Manama, Bahrain to a Sri Lankan father Elroy Fernandez and a Malaysian mother Kim, she was raised in a multicultural family. Her parents had moved to Bahrain due to the civil unrest in Sri Lanka.

After working as a television reporter in Sri Lanka, she entered modelling and was crowned Miss Sri Lanka Universe 2006 — representing Sri Lanka at the Miss Universe 2006 pageant in Los Angeles. This opened the doors to Bollywood, where she made her debut with the fantasy drama Aladin (2009).
