I don’t have any boyfriend in Bollywood, I have never been with any actor, director, or producer. I am more work-oriented. if you think I am worthy of your project I would love to be a part of it. But if any director, producer, or actor wants to cast their girlfriends then it’s their choice. That is the only reason I was not a part of “Welcome Back.”
On the work front, Mallika Sherawat was recently seen in the just-released web show Nakaab. She will soon be seen playing a part in Rajat Kapoor’s next film, wherein she plays an actress.
