Actors Gossips: Main tumhara naam hi disown karti hoon Mallika Sherawat reveals why she doesnt use her father surname

She said, “ It was my rebellion against patriarchy because my father said,‘ye filmo mein jayegi, parivaar ka naam kharab karegi".

Mallika Sherawat before admitted to changing her name when she started working in the film assiduity. Reema Lamba was her birth name, and she ran down from home to pursue a career in Bollywood.

She had preliminarily stated that she took her mama's maiden name, Sherawat, but she has now bared why she changed her name. In a recent interview, the actor stated that her father believed Mallika's entry into Bollywood would destroy the family's image, thus she chose to disavow the name.

Speaking to Bollywood Bubble she said, “ It was my rebellion against patriarchy because my father said,‘Ye filmo mein jayegi, parivaar ka naam kharab karegi, main tereko disown karta hoon (She'll enter the film assiduity, she'll ruin the family name, I disown you).’Maine kaha,'Main tumhara naam hi disown karti hoon. Tum kya mujhe disown karoge (I told him that I disown your name). Yes, you are my pater, I admire you, I love you, main apni maa ka naam use karungi (But I will use my mama's name).' So I used Sherawat, it's my mama's name,”.

Mallika has appeared in a number of flicks since her debut. When she performed a many strong scenes with Emraan Hashmi in Murder, she drew the attention of the entire country. Khwahish, Drink, Pyaar Ke Side Goods, and Dasavatharam were among her after flicks. She appeared in flicks similar as The Myth, starring Jackie Chan, and Politics of Love, which were both released internationally.

Mallika's most recent appearance was in Rajat Kapoor's‘Rk/ RKay’. She will next be seen in the digital series‘Naqab’. Speaking about her trip so far, she told a leading daily, “ I've auditioned to get work. I did n’t ever land a film without going through that. Indeed Jackie Chan had auditioned several actresses before casting me in his film (The Myth). The process was always there but I'm not sure if it was followed as rigorously for assiduity kiddies. This time around, when Rajat approached me for his film, he took me through a proper look test and screen- test and had told me that if he's not induced about it, I wo n’t get the part.”
