Mallika Sherawat, the sensational star of the iconic film Murder (2004), has made a grand return to the silver screen in the latest creation by director Raaj Shaandilyaa, titled Vicky Aur Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video. This talented actress has been making waves with her candid revelations about her journey in the Indian film industry. Recently, Mallika Sherawat shared a disturbing encounter from her time in the South, where a director proposed a rather unconventional scene involving roti-making on her waist.
In a heartfelt conversation with Hauterrfly, Mallika Sherawat delved into her experience working with a filmmaker in the South industry. Recalling a specific incident during a song shoot, she recounted how a director approached her with a request to showcase her allure. “I was filming a song in the South. The director came up to me and said, ‘Madam, we want to show how hot you are.’ Then he dropped a bombshell – ‘In this scene, the hero will be kneading chapattis on your waist,'” shared the bold actress in disbelief.
The audacity of such a suggestion left Mallika astounded. “Can you believe it? This was their version of portraying a woman’s appeal,” she expressed. The actress further revealed that the director emphasized the importance of this scene in the song. However, Mallika stood her ground and gracefully declined the offer, asserting that it did not align with her values.
Moreover, during a candid chat on The Ranveer Show, Mallika Sherawat shed light on the harsh realities of the industry, emphasizing the need for actors to navigate diplomatically to secure opportunities. She candidly admitted that mastering the art of “chamchagiri” (flattery) is often a prerequisite for landing roles in the competitive industry. Coming from Haryana, Mallika confessed her reluctance towards insincere flattery, choosing authenticity over conformity.
With an impressive filmography including titles like Darna Zaroori Hai, Kis Kis Ki Kismat, Maan Gaye Mughal-e-Azam, Welcome, Pyaar Ke Side Effects, Ugly Aur Pagli, Thank You, and Double Dhamaal, Mallika Sherawat continues to captivate audiences with her undeniable talent. Vicky Aur Vidya Ka Woh Wala Video, the latest project featuring this powerhouse performer, hit the theaters on October 11, promising an unforgettable cinematic experience.
