Mallika had earlier said that in her initial days in the film industry, filmmakers were interested in exploring her 'bold' image rather than acting skills and never found her a good fit as a 'Bollywood heroine'. She got famous for her bold scenes in the 2004 film Murder, and ever since has been living with the tag of a 'bold' heroine.
The image of women in the entertainment industry is changing. Sharing her opinion on it, Mallika told IANS, "It is such a progressive step towards a positive direction, now I feel that the film industry is much inclusive for women rather than the earlier days when I started out. These days filmmakers are thinking of writing multi-dimensional roles for women in cinema. When I came into the film industry, filmmakers did not know what to do with me, what kind of role I should be offered because I am a strong, opinionated actress with no inhibitions of 'kissing on screen'. I am always comfortable in my skin."
Mallika Sherawat has appeared in Bollywood and international films like The Myth, Welcome, Maan Gaye Mughal-e-Azam, Ugly Aur Pagli and Hisss.
