‘Many Bollywood Heroes Called Me to Their Rooms at Night,’ Mallika Sherawat Reveals
Actress Mallika Sherawat has candidly opened up about the challenges she faced in Bollywood, revealing how several male actors invited her to their hotel rooms late at night. In a recently surfaced video that has gone viral on social media, Mallika discussed how her bold roles in films led some industry members to make inappropriate assumptions about her.
Sherawat explained that because she portrayed bold characters on screen, certain actors assumed she would be open to casual behavior off-screen as well. “They would often question my reluctance, implying that if I could be bold on camera, I should have no issue meeting them privately,” she stated. Despite the pressure, Mallika firmly rejected these advances, making it clear that she does not compromise her values, no matter the expectations placed on her due to her roles.
She also shared that her refusal to comply with these demands has likely contributed to her being sidelined within the industry. Mallika, who made her debut in 2003 with Khwaish, gained widespread attention after starring in the 2004 film Murder, for which she won a Zee Cine Award for Best Actress. She has also starred in the Hollywood movie The Myth alongside Jackie Chan, and achieved commercial success with Pyaar Ke Side Effects in 2006. In 2022, she appeared in RK/RKay, directed by Rajat Kapoor.
