Bollywood bombshell Mallika Sherawat is going places and this year she will have not one but two of her films being featured in the prestigious Cannes Film Festival next month.
Sherawat plays a snake woman, out to revenge the capture of her mate by an American hunter in
Hisss
. Directed by Jennifer Lynch and produced by Govind Menon & Vikram Singh Lamba, the film is in post-production in Hollywood for the past several months.
Actor Irrfan Khan has already confirmed his presence at the festival where the producers will announce the release date for the film. The event will be followed by an exclusive cocktail party for international buyers, celebrities and festival VIPs, a source said.
Sherawat's other film
Love, Barack
is also set to be screened at the festival. A romantic comedy set during Barack Obama's campaign for the US Presidency, the film just finished shooting last month in Los Angeles.
