The glamorous Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat was born on October 24, 1976 in Haryana. Her real name was Reema Lamba but later she renamed herself as Mallika. Mallika's mother inspired her a lot and gave all her support so that her daughter could concentrate on her work.
Initially this 21year-old dusky beauty started her career as an air-hostess and during that time she married a pilot named Karan Singh Gill. But unfortunately their relationship did not work out and they got divorced. She first appeared in a music video. Mallika first got noticed in Bollywood with her racy appearance in the film Khwaish (released in 2003). In the same year she got her break when director Anurag Basu offered her the leading role in his super-hit film Murder. She worked there with actor Emran Hashmi and Ashmit Patel. The theme of the film was taken from a Hollywood movie Unfaithful.
Her skimpy clothes in that film created a sensation among the Indian audience and she became the most talked about actress in Bollywood. For this film she was nominated in the best actress category in the Zee Cine Awards. She has also done a small role in Jackie Chan's film The Myth. After the release of her film Pyar ke Side Effects (2006) she proved that she is not only a racy perfomer but also a good artist.
