She’s Razia. She’s Laila. She’s Jalebi Bai. Clearly, she’s the hottest ‘item’ on the block. And Mallika Sherawat promises to get naughtier than ever before. We promise, it’s no KLPD! Read

You’ve more item songs than Munnis, Sheilas and Chamelis… Ha, ha, ha! Well, that’s a great thing. And, if all the actresses want to do item songs now, it’s for the good of the industry. My favourite item song is Mayya Mayya, and my favourite item girl is Malaika. I turned Munni for the South remake of Dabangg, but she’s still way hotter than me.
Your film’s quite bold, just like you… I still don’t know what this KLPD term means, and no one’s telling me! It seems to be some mysterious word. But as far as the film is concerned, it is for all the lafangas of India. All the naughty boys are going to have a blast watching it.
Talking of bold, do you think you could have pulled off a ‘dirtier’ Silk than Vidya Balan? I just can’t be that over-weight. I’m very health conscious, and I know actors do things for roles, but I couldn’t have. That said, I think it’s great that Vidya is taking centre-stage with women-oriented films.
You’ve been getting naughty with Vivek Oberoi too. Like getting into the same T-shirt… Oh, Vivek’s a sweetheart. I get along pretty well with his wife, too.

in Rumour has it
Vivek Oberoi agreed to be co-producer of a film whose subject he found appealing but now has no time for it
Shaheen Parkar (MID-DAY; June 9, 2012)
Vivek Oberoi who had proclaimed himself to be producer of Mangesh Hadawale’s film Dekh Indian Circus about the aspirations of rural India, has apparently disassociated himself with the project. The film has Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Tannishta Chatterjee in the cast. It had premiered at the Busan Film Festival in Korea in November after which VO had espoused that he would promote it. The film has been produced by Mahaveer Jain, Anil Lad and Chirag Shah.
Says Mahavir, “As I know Vivek and after seeing what the film was about he agreed to be a co-producer of the project. He came on board only after the film was complete. At that time he was free and so did not mind being present for the film’s events. But when he started shooting, he told us to relieve him from the project. We now have Imtiaz Ali as presenter of the film.”
When the producers had met Ali and showed him the film, he was delighted with it and felt the movie should reach a maximum number of people, as it’s an entertaining and meaningful cinematic work. He thus came on board to promote and present it.
Says Vivek’s spokesperson, “He is still the producer of Dekh Indian Circus. As he has been busy of late he has not had time. He was earlier shooting for KLPD with Mallika Sherawat. He is presently in Singapore for IIFA Awards and will resume shooting in Rajasthan for Soham More >
