Bollywood Actress Mallika Sherawat

Beautiful Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat

Bollywood to Hollywood?

Bollywood actresses seem to be getting more and more attention worldwide.
And since they are getting attention, that gets the notice of Hollywood.
Here are some of the big Bollywood actresses that are either thinking about going to Hollywood, have already gone there, or are rumored to be going there.
By the way, in a reversal of this, Twilight star Kristen Stewart is not going to Bollywood to star in Panni as was earlier rumored.

It seems there was a battle heating up between Slumdog Millionaire's Freida Pinto and former Miss World and India's most successful actress Aishwarya Rai.
Rumor had it that both were being considered for the Bond girl in the next James Bond film.
But this battle may all be for naught, as the next Bond film has been suspended indefinitely and has been shelved.
The sequel (so far only known as Bond 23) was scheduled for release in late 2011 or in 2012 to coincide with the franchise's 50th anniversary.
Eon Productions' parent company MGM is in a financial mess right now, so we may never know if Ash or Freida would have won out.

But all is not lost in Hollywood for Bollywood.
British-born Indian actress Jiah Khan maybe headed to Tinsel Town.
It's rumored that Jiah may be involved in two international projects based out of Hollywood.

A Bollywood actresses that has been spending a lot of time in Hollywood, Mallika Sherawat, has gotten another feather in her cap in the US.
She recently won the the 2008 Renaissance Artist Award at the Multicultural Motion Picture Association’s Diversity Awards.
In the past, actresses like Salma Hayek, Halle Berry, and Monica Belluci have won the award.
After this, starring in Hisss, Love, Barack and getting a Honorary Citizenship in Los Angeles, I wonder if Mallika will ever return to India?

Bollywood Actress Katrina Kaif, The Good and The Bad

While Mallika Sherawat seems to be conquering Hollywood, Bollywood actress Katrina Kaif seems to be conquering everything else.
Katrina has been honored with the Rajiv Gandhi Award under the Best Actress category in Hindi cinema.
Katrina is also being listed as the most "Googled" actress in Bollywood cinema and she was voted "The Sexiest Woman in India" by FHM.

But despite all that, everything isn't coming up roses for Katrina.
Actor Jackie Shroff’s wife, Ayesha Shroff has come forth and announced that Katrina Kaif's real name is Katrina Turquotte.
Katrina has always maintained that her Kaif surname was due to her Kashmiri father, but Ayesha says that the name on Katrina's passport when she came to India was Katrina Turquotte.

StarBoxOffice.com has more info on this including....
“She used to work to support her huge family and she didn’t have a very respectable job in London. Kaizad Gustad picked up the very attractive lass off the streets of London. The makers of Boom concocted the Kashmir father-Brit mother story so that Indian audiences would accept her."

Now the question is, is Katrina really Indian at all?

Bollywood's Mallika Sherawat Conquers Hollywood

Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat is continuing her assault on Hollywood, and it looks like she's winning.

Friday (August 14) Mallika will be getting an honor that no other Bollywood star has received.
Because of her contributions to the Hollywood film industry and charities, she will be made an honorary citizen of Los Angeles by Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa.
Also in attendance at the ceremony will be the former Mayor Richard Riordan, Council member Jose Huizar and the Los Angeles City Council.

And according to rumors, Mallika is considering getting her body insured the way pro footballer Cristiano Ronaldo got his legs insured.

Mallika made quite a smash at the premiere of Quentin Tarantino's new movie.
Her outfit got as much attention as she did.
And she got quite a lot, talking to not only Tarantino, but Brett Ratner and others as well.
Her dress for the premiere has been pretty much universally slammed by online fashion sources.
Me?
Actually I kinda liked it.
Realize of course I grew up reading comics, and the dress reminded me of the femme fatale/super villainess' from the comics.
When I saw the pic of her and Brett Ratner (who made X-Men: The Last Stand) I thought " If he does another X-Men movie, there's his Black Queen!"

From what I saw, Quentin looked enamored with Mallika.
Could we be seeing her in an upcoming Tarantino movie perhaps?
Maybe we should wait and see how Hisss does first.

More Priyanka Chopra and Twitter

With over 22,000 followers, Bollywood beauty Priyanka Chopra is leading the pack as far as female Bollywood Tweeters go.
As of right now, Priyanka Chopra is at 22,873 and I think her closest rival is Mallika Sherawat at 11,448.
Although Mallika's account is verified which is something Priyanka should look into doing!
There are Twitter accounts listed for Bollywood stars like Bipasha Basu, Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor and Deepika Padukone, you cant tell if they are real unless they are verified.

Twitter is a great way to keep up with the stars.
For instance Priyanka said a few hours ago....
"Hey ma peeps.. In kuala lumpur for a new commercial.. Hope u guys will end up liking the campaign.. Can't tell u what it is yet but soon..."

And Mallika said...
"Just got bck frm th Long Beach evnt wth mom n dad:)I spok on Bhalf of JagritiCharity,an amazin org helpin women in urgent need.G'nite all:-)"

The Top Ten Bollywood Actresses Last Month

Amrita Arora, Number One in June.

I haven't done this in awhile, so here is a list of the top ten Bollywood actresses on this blog for June.....

1. Amrita Arora
The beautiful Bollywood actress born in Mumbai, India blew away all the competition and came in at number one.
Amrita has three movies in 2009, Kambakth Ishq (with Akshay Kumar, Kareena Kapoor and Aftab Shivdasani) , Team - The Force and Season's Greetings (with Sohail Khan, Tabu and Shreyas Talpade) .

2. Koena Mitra
Number two on the list is Indian actress and former model Koena Mitra.
The Bengali beauty hasn't had many successes in Bollywood lately, with only Ayan coming out this year.

3. Katrina Kaif
Coming in at number three is the Hong Kong-born British-Indian actress and model, Katrina Kaif.
Katrina not only has 2009 releases (New York, Blue, Ajab Prem Ki Ghazab Kahani, De Dana Dan), but even releases planed into 2010 (Rajneeti and a Padosan Remake) .
And she is one of my personal favorites.

4. Twinkle Khanna
Twinkle was very popular in the 90s in Hindi and Telugu films, and now she is an interior designer (she did the interiors for Rani Mukerji's new house) and co-owner of The White Window store.
Her last film was Love Ke Liye Kuchh Bhi Karega in 2001.

5. Rani Mukherjee
Rani Mukerji (Mukherjee) has two movies this year (Luck by Chance and Dil Bole Hadippa) and one set for 2010 ( the animated Koochie Koochie Hota Hain).

6. Deepika Padukone
Deepika was recently diagnosed with malaria after becoming ill during a shoot in London. But she'll get better and shooting on Sajid Nadiadwala's Housefull will continue.

7. Mallika Sherawat
Mallika Sherawat is getting a lot of press for her upcoming movie "Hisss". And a lot of attention on Twitter.

8. Preity Zinta
This honest and outspoken Bollywood beauty has two movies this year, Main Aur Mrs. Khanna and Har Pall.

9. Shilpa Shetty
The Indian film actress and model has two movies coming out this year, The Man and The Desire.

Another Bengali beauty with five movies this year, including her first Hollywood movie co-starring with Billy Zane.

Deepika Padukone and Bollywood Actresses on Twitter

CNN.com has an article up about the incredible rise of Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone.
I didn't realize her path to stardom was so humble, but in reading this, I think in the future, the life of Deepika might actually make a good film itself.

"After deciding to become a model at the age of 16, she was picked out of a music video by acclaimed director Farah Khan and cast in her next film opposite Shahrukh Khan. "Om Shanti Om" went on to become not only a hit in India, but also gained wider acclaim among western audiences."

You can read the whole article here.




I mentioned awhile back about Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat using her Twitter account, but I really had no idea so many Bollywood beauties used Twitter.
Besides Mallika, Aishwarya Rai, Preity Zinta, Bipasha Basu, Madhuri Dixit and Ayesha Takia all have Twitter accounts, among others.
You should be able to find their accounts with a Twtter Search.

Kareena Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit and Mallika Sherawat

Bollywood actress Kareena Kapoor is featured on Maxim magazine on it's cover.
Kareena is getting a lot of press lately, including the fact that she was on Filmfare Magazine’s “most powerful women” list.
Kareena has also told the press that she's putting marriage on the back burner to pursue her career.


And Madhuri Dixit has sparked a controversy, but not intentionally.
There's a lake in Arunachal Pradesh called Tsho-nga Tser that the locals began to refer to as " Madhuri " after Shah Rukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit shot Koyla there.
The locals seem to be more than a little upset that their lake is being renamed by outsiders.


And finally, Bollywood beauty Mallika Sherawat has signed to make a film called “Female Barack Obama”, which is based on San Francisco Attorney General Kamala Harris.
Mallika is in LA of the post production of her film "Hisss" and has been burning up Twitter while shes been there.
Mallika is one of the most followed Bollywood personalities on Twitter with over 6000 fans.
She's even set to make a side trip to Twitter HQ on July 14th.

What’s common between Aditya Chopra and the late Raj Kapoor?

Battle of the bods

What’s common between Aditya Chopra and the late Raj Kapoor? Answer: if Kapoor dressed his heroines in transparent saris and dunked them into pools and waterfalls, today it’s the reclusive Adi who’s taken over the mantle.

A little aside here: Kapoor’s heroines, whether it was Padmini from Jis Desh Mein Ganga Behti H ai or Padmini Kolhapure from Prem Rog, backed up their skin show with histrionics (we’ll leave Zeenat Aman out for the moment). Nargis, Vyjayanthimala and Padmini Kolhapure, Kapoor’s favoured heroines, are among the finest actresses in Bollywood. Adi’s Angels (and a few other Bollywood bimbettes like Mallika Sherawat) on the other hand, can dictate trends in mini skirt lengths but don’t necessarily know how to act.

Mallika Sherawat gets trademarked

Mallika Sherawat gets trademarked
13th July 2008 09.00 IST
By ApunKaChoice

Imagine Bollywood bombshell Mallika Sherawat with that trademark stamp of encircled TM.
That has actually become a reality as far as Mallika’s name is concerned. Yes, the hot babe is in the process of acquiring the unique distinction of being the first Bollywood actress to get her name trademarked.
In layman’s language it means that her name cannot henceforth be used for commercial or publicity purposes. For example, if someone runs a beauty salon named Mallika Sherawat Beauty Parlour, or a shop named Mallika Sherawat Undergarments, the person might soon receive a legal notice from the actress’s lawyer for infringement of copyright.

Mallika Sherawat is all set to replace Zeenat Aman

Mallika Sherawat is all set to replace Zeenat Aman in Feroz Khan’s Qurbani remake.

Feroz has apparently been searching for a heroine for a long time. Priyanka Chopra was reportedly considered for the role but was not finalized. Now, reports allege that Mallika has bagged the part.

In the film, Mallika will be paired with Fardeen Khan who plays the role enacted by his father in the original film.

Hunt is still on for another hero to play the role enacted by Vinod Khanna. Saif Ali Khan was initially finalized for the part, but the actor opted out of the project due to date problems.

However, this time Feroze Khan will not play the lead role of the suave thief Rajesh. Instead he will step into the shoes of the eccentric inspector Amjad Khan, played by late Amjad Khan.

Mallika Sherawat - Bollywood Women

Mallika Sherawat was born October 24, 1972, as Reema Lamba in Rohtak, Haryana, India.
She is an Indian actress and model .
She has a degree in philosophy from Miranda House, Delhi University.

Sherawat's birth name is Reema Lamba; she adopted the screen name of "Mallika", meaning "queen", to avoid confusion with other actresses named Reema. "Sherawat" is her mother's maiden name.

Mallika became popular the amount of skin shown and the numerous on-screen kisses in the movie Khwahish (2003) which was, by Indian standards quite scandalous. Later that year, she starred in Murder, a film that again raised eyebrows due to the amount of skin shown by Ms. Sherawat, although she also received a 'Best Actress' nomination at the Zee Cine Awards for her performance.

She has also been in the news as the first Bollywood actress to be featured in the Jackie Chan, "The Myth", though for all the buzz, it was more of an extended cameo than a starring role. It might also mark the first time that a Bollywood actress was cast in a film outside Bollywood for her sex appeal. As part of the publicity for the film, Time Magazine film critic Richard Corliss, after meeting her at the Cannes film festival, described her as "a young woman, so gorgeous, curvaceous and genial, and so open in her ambition to be the next big thing, that she surely will be. Striding down the Croisette, making the paparazzi pop their bulbs, Sherawat summoned old-timers' memories of a festival 50 years ago, when the vision of the young Brigitte Bardot on the beach first sold the world on the notion of this Riviera resort as the home for unbuttoned movie glamour. The movies may have grown more dour, but the stars still make it smile. As Cannes was, so Cannes is."

In July 2004, the Bollywood film producers' union IMPAA temporarily blacklisted Mallika. Filmmaker Ramesh Sharma complained that she had committed a breach of contract when she failed to turn up, as promised, for the filming of Kab Kyun Kahan (started in 1999).
