Mallika Sherawat: the desi damsel in The Dirty Politics

Mallika Sherawat dons a desi look in her upcoming film The Dirty Politics.

Mallika Sherawat was last seen on the silver screen in Kismat Love Paisa Dilli (2012) opposite Vivek Oberoi. The film scored poorly at the box office and earned a meagre amount of around Rs. 2 crore on the opening weekend. The actress is now set to conquer the 70mm canvas with her ambitious project The Dirty Politics.

The self-appointed queen of modernism in India (in reference to her recent Variety interview) Mallika Sherawat plays a village damsel in the upcoming film.

The Dirty Politics is reportedly based on the life of nurse Bhanwari Devi, who had gone missing from Jodhpur and was killed in 2011. The film is currently under production.

KC Bokadia's film features Jackie Shroff, Anupam Kher, Om Puri, Atul Kulkarni and Ashutosh Rana along with Mallika.
