Personal Life and Career
Mallika always wanted to be a star and was hell bent on achieving what she wanted. But her conservative parents, especially her father was dead against her quest for stardom. He still is. So Mallika ran away from home to Mumbai and slogged it out by doing various jobs including that of a part-time airhostess. There she met Karan Singh Gill, a pilot. They dated for a while and got married. Mallika was such a dreamer that her husband found it hard to adjust to her idealistic wife and soon they parted. But the loss was entirely his! Mallika got some modeling assignments, which kept her going. Later she modeled for some top products like BPL and Santro with Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan. When Govind Menon came to with Khwaish, a film dealing with marital tensions, she lapped it up. She had no qualm with the 17 kissing's or the skin show. The film became an unexpected hit and she never looked back. The film that took her to the top was Mahesh Bhatt's erotic thriller Murder directed by Anurag Basu. With the help of her talent and her skin show, it became a huge hit. She was nominated in the 'Best Actress' category in the Zee Cine Awards.
