Biography Details

Mallika Sherawat (born Reema Lamba on October 24, 1976, in Moth, Hisar, Haryana) is an Indian actress known for her bold image and international presence. From a conservative Jat family, she graduated from Delhi University before moving to Mumbai against family wishes. Debuting with Khwaahish (2003), she rose to fame with Murder (2004), a major hit.

She starred in Hollywood/Chinese films like The Myth (2005) with Jackie Chan and Hisss (2010). Known for glamorous, daring roles, she earned global attention as one of Bollywood's boldest stars. Divorced from pilot Karan Singh Gill (1997–2001), she remains unmarried. Estranged from her orthodox family, she has focused on international events and selective projects. At 49, she attends high-profile gatherings (e.g., White House Christmas dinner 2025) and is in talks for reality shows like The 50 (2026).
