'''Kimi Katkar''' (born 11 December 1965) is a former actress and model, who worked in [[Bollywood|Hindi films]]. She was active throughout the 1980s and the early 1990s, and starred in over 50 films, including ''[[Adventures of Tarzan]]'' (1985) and ''[[Hum (1991 film)|Hum]]'' (1991).

==Career==
Kimi Katkar made her acting debut in the 1985 film ''Patthar Dil'' as a supporting actress. Later that year, she starred in ''[[Adventures of Tarzan]]'', where she played the lead opposite [[Hemant Birje]]. After the film, she continued to work throughout the late 1980s, followed by notable films such as ''[[Mera Lahoo]]'' (1987), ''[[Dariya Dil]]'' (1988), ''[[Sone Pe Suhaaga]]'' (1988), ''[[Gair Kanooni]]'' (1989), ''[[Jaisi Karni Waisi Bharnii]]'' (1989) and ''[[Khoon Ka Karz]]'' (1991).

In the hit 1991 film ''[[Hum (film)|Hum]]'' (1991), she played the lead actress opposite [[Amitabh Bachchan]]. In the film, she was cast as Jumma. The popular song "Jumma Chumma De" from this movie was picturized on her and was sung by playback singers [[Sudesh Bhonsle]] and [[Kavita Krishnamurthy]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.lehren.tv/Stars.aspx?ID=217 |title=Kimi Katkar |access-date=29 September 2009 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090331151527/http://lehren.tv/Stars.aspx?ID=217 |archive-date=31 March 2009 |url-status=dead }}</ref> Thereafter, she started restricting herself to few movies.
