Kristina Akheeva (born 1 November 1986) is an Australian model and actress, who works in India
Akheeva was born in Khabarovsk, Russia to a Russian mother and half Tajikistani half Russian father. At age 7, Kristina moved to Australia and later at age 17, moved to Melbourne to pursue an acting career. While developing her craft at an acting school, she was approached by numerous photographers who wanted to work with her. At first, she wanted no more than to have some nice pictures of herself, but over time she started to get more and more regular work with local photographers
Akheeva enrolled in Evening Acting classes while in Melbourne. She started modeling to gain experience in front of the camera and caught the attention of a lot of local Australian photographers. An agency in Singapore came across Akheeva's portfolio, and offered her a three month modeling contract. She took up the offer as she thought it would be a great way for her to explore different cultures and work at the same time. After a year of more travel, Kristina once again returned to India in 2012. Kristina has been roped in for the film Yamla Pagla Deewana 2 which is a sequel to the super hit 2011 film Yamla Pagla Deewana, starring Dharmendra along with his two sons Sunny Deol
