Liverpool Schoolgirl to Bollywood Star
At the age of 23, Amy Jackson is one of Bollywood's hottest stars. She's appeared in four hit movies and is mobbed by fans wherever she goes in India. But Amy is a white woman from the North of England who couldn't speak a word of Hindi and had never acted before when she landed her first role. She made her screen debut in 2010 in Madrasapattinam. After a whirlwind career, her fifth Bollywood film, I, has just been released. It's the most expensive movie ever made in India.
