The curious case of Mallika Sherawat

Mallika Sherawat

The actress, who shot to fame with her film Murder, has somehow found a way to stay in the limelight with her celeb appearances.

The latest news has it that the actress, who divides her time between LA and India, has been invited by the Oxford Union to address a panel discussion on gender discrimination. Despite having no hit film in the past three years, Mallika has grabbed headlines for her antics — be it singing Happy Birthday to a politician, making provocative statements or just her dressing sense.

One wonders how Sherawat — whose films make less noise than her celeb outings- ends up with such invitations. Clearly, her PR machinery has been on an overdrive.
