Don’t know why people pull me down-Mallika Sherawat
0The siren is in India to shoot for her item number with Tamil star Simbu
V Lakshmi (BOMBAY TIMES; October 7, 2011)
How did you land the offer in Osthe (Dabangg’s Tamil version)? I was in Los Angeles, basking in the critical acclaim my Hollywood film, Politics Of Love, was receiving when I was made this offer. I’ve always been a big fan of the song-and-dance sequences in Tamil cinema. Moreover, the original Hindi item number, Munni Badnaam Hui, is a popular track. Fans will connect with it so I said okay.
How different is Kalasala… from Munni…? The Tamil version is more upbeat. Munni… was more of a folk melody, but Kalasala… has given me a lot of opportunity to exhibit jhatkas and nakras. The song’s composition and beats have been put together in such a way that the entire focus of the movements lies on my waist. Director Dharani and choreographer Robert keep asking me to move my hips to the beat. I’m yet to shoot with Simbu, but I hear he’s an exceptionally good dancer.
Are you looking to do more films in the south? I’m already part of Tamil cinema. I’ve worked with Kamal Haasan already. I’d love to do a film with Rajinikanth too. There are so many talented actors in the south with whom I’d love to do a film. This is the best part of being a female actor — you can be part of all the ’woods.
Like Hollywood? Yes. It was more difficult for me to make a foothold in Bollywood than in Hollywood. In B-Town, there’s nepotism. But Hollywood gives everyone a fair chance. I More >
