Actress Mallika Sherawat believes that after watching her work in upcoming film Dirty Politics, filmmakers will start offering her performance-oriented roles.
“This happens only a few times in a career of an actor... when they are offered roles that are glamorous as well as performance-oriented. Dirty Politics is a mixture of both,” Sherawat said at the film’s music launch on Tuesday.
Said to be based on the Bhanwari Devi scandal, Dirty Politics is directed by K.C. Bokadia.
“I’m really hoping that after this movie, my fans like it, critics like it, serious directors take a note of it and then offer me performance-oriented parts and not only glamour-oriented parts,” the Maiyya maiyya actress added.
Dirty Politics also features Naseeruddin Shah, Anupam Kher, Jackie Shroff, Ashutosh Rana and Rajpal Yadav. The film will hit cinema screens on February 13.
Director Bokadia also has high hopes that the film will bring about a change — in Hindi cinema.
“We all tried hard to make this a good film and I’m very confident that Dirty Politics will create the same sensation as my first film Pyaar Jhukta Nahin did in 1985,” Bokadia said.
“I’m also very confident that after this film there will be a trend change in Hindi cinema. People will become more serious about making films,” he added.
