It has been four years since Mallika Sherawat was seen as a leading lady in a mainstream quintessential Bollywood flick. After being seen as Shabnam in 'Maan Gaye Mughall-E-Azam' [2008], Mallika is now making her 'heroine' comeback with 'Kismat Love Paisa Dilli' a.k.a. KLPD and as per makers, her role and performance in the film is all set to surprise many out there.

"Vivek Oberoi is playing this 'tharki' (horny) Delhi guy and for someone like him the ideal girl who he lusts for has to be nothing less than Mallika. As a female protagonist, she fits the bill perfectly. Also, while she has been seen in a few films in the interim period where she has either done an item number or appeared in a cameo, in KLPD audience will see a lot more of Mallika since she is the female lead", informs a source attached to the film.

While quite of a few of her songs have turned chartbusters over the years, as a performer she continues to be remembered for 'Pyaar Ke Side Effects' (2006).

"Well her performance would be very surprising for a lot of people", says Amit Chandrra, the film's producer, "The way she made many stand up and notice her act in PKSE, it would be similar with KLPD as well. She has a lot of shades to her in the film and we have made sure that audience are not disappointed in any manner."

Adds director Sanjay Khanduri, "The film is basically a story about a boy who falls for a girl and in the process of wooing her, a few things go wrong. They come across a series of uncanny events & quircky characters and by morning their lives are changed forever. Both Mallika and Vivek have quite a few surprises in store for the audience. Stay tuned."

We are for sure as we wait for the film to releases all over on 5th October.
