She had been bold and daring enough from her debut film itself. The oomph siren Mallika Sherawat recently showed her daring side on the international shores as well. Mallika promoted her forthcoming film 'Hisss' in the company of live snakes at Cannes Film Festival.

She wore them, cuddled them and even kissed them! Miss Sherawat proved that she had been perfect to play the role of snake woman in the film. With some help, the actress carried along a 22-foot python to promote the film at the Majestic Hotel in Cannes, France. While the beauty wore a black-yellow dress, interestingly the python was worn a black bow.

In her Twitter page, Mallika had written, "All the Snakes have just entered the Majestic Hotel in Cannes! Hissstory is being made." She also revealed that 'Hisss' will be released in India on Independence Day.

Besides, the actress is there to promote her other film 'Love, Barack', which will be screened at the festival.

'Hisss' is directed by Jennifer Lynch and produced by Govind Menon and Vikram Singh Lamba of Split Image Pictures. The film also features Irrfan Khan, Divya Dutta and American character actor Jeff Doucette.
