I think your best bet is to practice being natural and being yourself. Everyone enjoys interesting people who have something to say and contribute.

We're all human and have the same fears and doubts about ourselves. If you build your self-confidence, approaching anyone will be easier.

Keep in mind that if you approach someone feeling inadequate or unprepared to say something interesting or relevant, you will appear ill at ease. You could always approach with a question such as - "So what do you think about so and so?" If all goes well, an interesting conversation should follow. Also, be a good listener. There is nothing as charismatic as a good listener.
