Politics of love
The failure of her last crossover film 'Hisss' notwithstanding, sultry actress Mallika Sherawat says her latest outing 'Politics of Love' will be a milestone in her career.
"Not many Indian actors get a chance to play the lead in a mainstream American movie. This was an intelligent script and too good an opportunity to pass," Mallika said.
The film, directed by William Dear, is romantic comedy between a Indian American Democrat played by Mallika and African American Republican supporter played by Brian White. It is inspired by the slew of publicly documented love stories that sprung up in the run-up to Barack Obama's presidential election.
The actress described her journey from a being small town girl to Bollywood and now Hollywood as "great". She said there was not much difference between the working styles of both film industries, "except the fact that Hollywood is lucky in terms of budget."
