Bollywood is for sure a fan of its dance numbers and they never fail to entertain their audience with them.
However, for one such dance sequence, the producer wanted to heat chapatis on the actress’s waist.
As per reports, during an appearance on The Love Laugh Live Show, Mallika Sherawat said that once a producer pitched this idea to her but she refused to do it. The actress added that she found it ‘funny and original’.
“In his warped thinking, he was like, ‘Bada hot song hai. Audience ko kaise pata chalega ki aap hot hai? Aap itni hot hai ki aapki kamar pe main chapati sekh sakta hoon (It’s a very hot song. How will the audience know you are hot? You are so hot that one can heat chapatis on your waist).’ Some weird notion like that. Have you ever heard of anything like that?,” Malaika said.
“I put my foot down. I said, ‘No, we are not doing any such thing.’ But I thought it was very funny and original. It’s an original idea,” she continued.
Mallika says that she does not understand what is considered hot in India; in fact, she finds it weird. “I think they have a really weird perception of hotness in India for women. I don’t understand it. Of course, it’s better now but when I started my career, it was weird,” she said.
Mallika Sherawat is famous for her performances in films such as Khwahish and Murder.
