Mallika Sherawat's price comes crashing down

With two back-to-back flops in Ugly Aur Pagli and Maan Gaye Mughal-E-Azam , the soaring market price of Mallika Sherawat has come crashing down.

Mallika had reportedly begun quoting 1 to 1.5 crore per film post the success of Welcome and was expecting both ‘Ugly Aur Pagli’ and ‘Maan Gaye Mughal-E-Azam’ to become hits but well fate had something else in store for her.

Not only both these films flopped badly but also got her acting severe criticism from all quarters. This has been a major set back for Mallika in terms of demanding the price she wanted for herself.

Now with these two massive flops in a row, producers are being vary of negotiating any price with her beyond Rs, 75 lakhs and Mallika too has been left with no choice but comply with it without being the snooty self that she had been for last few months.

Mallika was offered a film by Zee Group to be directed by Tigmanshu Dhulia few months back. It was a solo lead role and Mallika had quoted Rs. 1.5 crore as her acting fees.

That time the Zee officials decided to take some time to come back to her as the script too was yet to be completed. But now just a few days back. the Zee guys went back again with a complete bound script to Mallika.

It is learnt that they both have mutually agreed on a price of Rs. 75 lakhs for the film. The shooting for the film will begin in 2008 end.

Apart from this film, Mallika has Fauj Mein Mauj and Naagin – The Snake Woman in her kitty.
