Struggling to acquire the tag of India’s sex symbol, Mallika Sherawat has virtually dropped her clothes to clinch the ‘coveted’(?) title. Mallika started out as a small-time model and actress from Delhi called Reema Lamba before she re-christened herself Mallika Sherawat (the second name is reportedly her maiden one). The rumour is that she was already married to one, Capt. Gill from Delhi, but sadly, the marriage didn’t exactly work!
A small-town girl (from Rohtak in Haryana), Mallika always had stars in her eyes and was determined to pursue the glamour profession and give it all it took to make it! Even though her conservative father was dead against her decision (he still is!), Mallika defied his wishes and moved to Mumbai to carve a niche for herself in the big bad world of showbiz!
For her teachers at Delhi Public School, Mathura Road, she is a flamboyant, bold, sharp, outspoken girl. For her ex husband, she is a lost ache. Her parents and relative see her as their li’l girl fighting out on her own and for us she is our ‘Controversy Queen’.
