According to a press release, Bollywood sex-kitten Mallika Sherawat , is playing the role of a CIA agent in Dasavatharam . While Kamal Haasan ’s ten different roles and an equal number of dictions in the much-awaited film has been hogging the media limelight all these days, it has now emerged that the female leads are also in for some meaty roles, with Asin playing a double role.
And the surprise package could well be Mallika, who, making her first direct entry into Kollywood, “dons an altogether different cap in the movie,” the release said. Asin, who has been delivering quite a number of hits, pairing with top Tamil and Telugu heroes, will for the first time play a double role. The other Bollywood
connection to the film comes by way of singer Himesh Reshammiya , who also makes his debut in Tamil cinema. However, it is not clear whether he will render one of his own numbers in Tamil. The release further said that the audio rights of the movie have been bagged by Sony BMG, which makes its foray into the regional music market through the Kamal-Asin starrer.
The release quoted Shridhar Subramaniam, Managing Director Sony BMG India as saying it was “privilege for us to enter the Tamil music market with a project as grand and special as ‘Dasavatharam’”. Earlier slated for a Pongal (January 15) release, post production delay ensured that the producer, Oscar V Ravichandran rescheduled the dates for April.
The successful duo of director K S Ravikumar and Kamal Haasan had earlier come out with the rib-ticklers, ‘Avvai Shanmugi’ and ‘Panchathantiram’. The sensational and the steaming Sherawat is all set to surprise Bollywood by being the highest paid actress for Cameos.
Eyes popped out is it? Well, the faster you digest the fact that she is not just hear to stay but also to rule, the better it will be for your senses. Mallika Sherawat is being paid 1.5 crore for her cameo role in Himesh Reshammiya’s “Aap Ka Suroor”, which means she is paid 15 lakhs per minute. Oooph…that is really huge! This makes her the highest paid actress in the history of Bollywood. Now, does Rani, Kajol, Ash or any one wants to comment on that.
