I feel so sad when ppl born in maharastrian families can't speak in their mother tongue. and they blame on studying in English medium schools or Convent schools. Some even say they have been working in the hindi film industry for so long that its bound to lose touch with their first language πŸ˜²... Not acceptable πŸ‘ŽπŸΌ

but the first 3 or so yrs of life are spent at home, she entered the film industry in her late teens..ample of time to learn Marathi. I'm assuming her siblings n parents converesed in Marathi, at least. Heck, I've been here with my cousins since forever, we still converse in Marathi, at home..so do my lil cousins who are born n brought up here. Fakeness ki haadh hoti hain. Didn't expect this from Madhuri

I can say that for desi's living USA, they become CD's (confused desi's) and their kids ABCD's (American born confused desi's).

 

Katrina is a UKBCD so she's got be confused.

Yes, she does have an accent... but that may not be deliberate.  I too live in US, and I have noticed that we all (born in India and settled in US) have accents.   It just happens.  Yes, it's neither here or there, but definitely not deliberate.   We all have it.    It happens more if you end up using more English for whatever reason.

 My kids, born and being raised in the US do get a Mumbai-accent in their English after every summer vacation.... As for Madhuri, she doesn't need to impress anybody at this stage of her life anymore.   I don't think she is faking it.

thankfully her marathi accent isn't americanized.......πŸ˜†

Yo I was born and bred in Canada
 
And I speak Punjabi better than anyone...pple are surprised when I went to India that I can understand more than just the swear words
 
Gotta love when the old indian aunties stay stuff in punjabi expecting you to not understand
 
Then I respond ...snarkly...in punjabi and their dentures almost fall off

Madhuri was making an effort to make her accent sound "american"
Katrina was making an effor to sound ....ehmmm...UK Indian Broken Accent?
 
Katrina is not confused...neither is Madhuri...they are just both trying too hard to sound like each other....
