Mallika Sherawat, née Reema
Lamba, born in 1976 in Rohtak, Haryana, was raised in a traditional family
where the girls were trained with stricter controls. Right from childhood, she
had an inclination for life outside that narrow framework and was earnestly
interested in movies and the acting profession.
Following her philosophical
studies in Delhi, she took the courage to migrate to Mumbai to try her hand at
her dreams. It was not easy—there was rejection, belittling, and skepticism
from a society that was not willing to accept women wanting fame. She had to
rebrand herself to get noticed, so she took on the name Mallika Sherawat, a
sign of the confidence and fearlessness she desired to embody.
Her breakthrough was in the early
2000s. Mallika gained fame playing risqué characters, defying Bollywood's
conventional expectations of women. When many people criticized her decisions,
she utilized the spotlight to establish her own niche, that of independence and
self-expression.
Her professional life was also a
carbon copy of her personal life—she was condemned by society but remained
resolute in her decisions regarding love and life. She also went abroad into
her field of work, working in Hollywood movies and international commercials,
exhibiting her determination and perseverance.
With each test and victory,
Mallika's life is one of strength and bravery. From being a girl from a small
town with huge ambitions to being a worldwide star who is worshiped for being
fearless, she has never gone against the grain but rather scripted her own
tale, encouraging millions to do their dreams their way.
