Excerpts from the interview
Karan:Welcome
to
Koffee
with
Karan!!!
Mallika:
Thanks!
Karan:
So
you
are
finally
on
the
show.
Everyone
used
to
ask
me
when
are
you
getting
Mallika
Sherawat
on
the
show?
Mallika:
I've
provided
enough
entertainment
for
Koffee
with
Karan.
I've
been
made
fun
of...
been
ridiculed!
Karan:
No!
No!
That's
not
what
used
to
happen!
Mallika:
Of
course!
That
was
it!
You
think
I
don't
know!
Karan:
(Laughs)
Mallika:
No
harm!
I'm
sitting
here
and
as
Robert
De
Niro
said,
"You
didn't
knock
me
down!
I'm
still
standing!"
Karan:
You
were
always
the
option
when
we
asked
the
men,
who
was
the
sexiest
woman
they
thought..
The
answer
was
always
you!
You
think
you
were
a
safe
option
for
them?
Mallika:
I
think
I
am
a
woman
who
dared!
Karan:
Oh
really?
Mallika:
Yes!
Probably
that's
why
the
answer...
but
I
take
it
as
a
compliment..
as
a
big
compliment...
Karan:
What
else
can
she
ask
for
and
when
people
say
things
about
her
and
about
her
being
honest
and
controversial...
What
do
you
have
to
say
about
that?
Sanjay:
I
think...
I
just
said...
She
is
what
she
is.
She
doesn't
pretend
herself
as
someone
else.
She
speaks
her
mind
out
and
to
her
I
want
to
say
"Kuch
to
log
kahenge...
logo
ka
kaam
hai
kehna".
You
just
do
what
you
are
doing..
be
what
you
are
and
keep
working!"
Mallika:
Very
encouraging
Sanjay!
Thank
you
so
much!
You
know
I
must
say
something.
Everyone
told
me
that
Sanjay
Leela
Bhansali
is
this
intense
Guru
Dutt
kind
of
director.
..don't
joke
with
him
too
much.
Be
very
serious
and
Karan
Johar
is
extremely
sensitive...
don't
offend
him..
Keep
your
mouth
shut!
Karan:
You
can
offend
us!
We
won't
mind
too
much!
Sanjay:
We're
used
to
not
feeling
like
you!
And
it
really
doesn't
make
a
difference!
Karan:
Aren't
you
seeking
love
in
your
life?
Mallika:
I
want
to
seek
love!
Lots
of
love!
Karan:
Love
from
a
man,
darling!
Not
from
the
masses.
Mallika:
Am
talking
about
love
from
a
man,
yes!
Karan:
There's
never
a
lonely
moment,
you
want
to
share?
Mallika:
There
are
lots
of
lonely
moments.
I
am
alone.
I
live
alone
in
the
city.
Family
is
not
here.
It
gets
excruciating
being
lonely.
But
I
have
to
learn
to
deal
with
it.
I
genuinely
haven't
met
a
man
who
doesn't
believe
that
women
are
superior
to
men.
The
day
I
meet
a
man...
Sanjay:
But
Mallika...
Why
should
a
woman
be
superior
to
a
man?
Karan:
Exactly!
Mallika:
I
somehow
have
a
clinical
disorder!
Sanjay:
I
don't
think
you
should
suffer
anymore
from
it
because
its
important
to
know
that
men
are
women
are
equal!
Men
should
not
say
that
women
are
inferior
and
women
should
not
think
so
either..
Mallika:
Are
both
of
you'll
ganging
up
on
me?
Sanjay:
No!
Mallika:
Yes!
You
are
ganging
up
on
me!
Karan:
Ok,
genius
that
you
are
Sanjay...
Don't
you
think
he's
one,
Mallika?
Mallika:
I
think
he's
a
genius!
Karan:
Yes
he
totally
is
a
genius!
And
he
loves
you
and
he
thinks
you're
fabulous!
So
how
come
you
never
thought
of
casting
Mallika,
Sanjay?
Sanjay:
Uh!
It
all
depends
on
the
role.
You
don't
cast
because
you
find
Mallika
Sherawat
fabulous!
You
have
to
write
a
script...
I
write
a
script...
and
if
I
think
Mallika
Sherawat
fits
in
then
I'll
call.
Karan:
Ok!
You
think
you
get
that
a
lot,
Mallika.
People
think
you
are
sexy
and
saucy
but
you
never
get
considered
by
the
A
list
directors?
You
think
that
happens?
Mallika:
I
did
a
Pyaar
Ke
Side
Effects
where
you,
yourself
mentioned
that
I've
stepped
into
good
acting
and
good
cinema
but
I
would
also
believe
that
a
lot
depends
on
the
script
and
the
kind
of
script
a
film-maker
is
writing
and
if
I
fit
into
that
script.
For
example,
I
believe
that
I
couldn't
fit
into
Aishwarya
Rai's
role
in
Hum
Dil
De
Chuke
Sanam
at
all.
I
think
I
was
a
complete
misfit
for
that.
It
all
depends
on
the
script
and
the
role
and
I'm
sure
if
they
think
that
she
fits
the
bill,
they
will
come
to
me!
Karan:
You
think
she
wouldn't
have
fitted
into
that
kind
of
role?
Sanjay:
No!
Karan:
You
don't
think
so..
What
kind
of
role?
Sanjay:
We
all
have
our
genres.
Like
I
can't
make
an
action
film
and
I
cannot
make
a
comedy...
Karan:
I
can't
either!
Sanjay:
So
we
have
our
genres...
our
own
limitations
and
so
does
she
and
so
does
Aishwarya,
so
does
Rani!
We
all
have
our
own
slots
and
we
fit
in
them.
Sometimes
magically
we
fit
into
the
right
slots.
Murder
for
example
was
the
right
film
for
her
and
became
a
big
hit!
Pyar
Ke
Side
Effects
in
the
last
year.
Who
is
Mallika
Sherawat?
Does
she
have
a
godfather?
Does
she
have
anybody
backing
her?
Promoting
her?
She's
self-made!
And
it
makes
you
feel
proud
of
her!
Karan:
In
a
sense...
so
are
you!
You
also
didn't
come
from
a
real
background
in
that
sense.
Sanjay:
Absolutely!
We
need
to
work
harder,
need
to
be
alert
all
the
time...
and
that
takes
up
all
the
energy...
but
its
wonderful
spending
all
that
energy!
Karan:
Yes
of
course
that
is
and
your
putting
in
all
your
energy
in
your
next
film
with
newcomers
-
Ranbir
and
Sonam.
Sanjay:
Too
much
energy!
Karan:
And
how's
that
going?
The
experience
with
Sanwariyan?
Sanjay:
Absolutely
beautiful.
They
are
beautiful
kids!
They're
new
so
you
are
as
excited
as
much
as
they
are
and
as
a
director
I
have
become
more
alert
because
I
need
to
watch
every
nuance,
which
they
present.
So
far
I've
worked
with
the
great
Abhishek
Bachchan
or
the
fabulous
Aishwarya
and
Rani,
or
Salman
Khan
or
Shah
Rukh
Khan
but
these
people
are
a
total
new
experience.
I'm
watching
carefully.
I'm
growing
as
a
director
with
them.
I'm
enjoying
it
immensely.
There
are
no
date
hassles.
There's
a
new
freshness
on
the
screen.
They're
so
beautiful
to
look
at.
I
think
our
stars
are
a
little
jaded.
Karan:
Your
finding
them
looking
jaded
these
days?
Sanjay:
And
post
40..
they
can't..
you
can't
expect
them
to
play
lovers
in
a
teenage
film.
It
doesn't
make
any
sense.
These
people
bring
in
a
lot
of
freshness...
a
lot
of
hope...
Karan:
You
feel
these
younger
kids
you
are
launching
fresh
talent..
You
think
they'll
being
in
energy
and
a
new
breed
of
talent.
Sanjay:
Absolutely!
They
have
inherited
the
legacy
of
Raj
Kapoor
and
Anil
Kapoor!
It's
exciting
to
see
the
parents...
when
you
see
Neetuju
and
Rishiji.
Karan:
How
excited
they
are!
Sanjay:
They're
absolutely
excited!
There's
a
spark
in
their
eyes!
They're
waiting!
Karan:
They've
given
you
their
babies!
Sanjay:
It's
an
absolute
honour
and
I'm
making
this
magnum
opus
with
them
and
half
of
them
feel
I
am
crack
because
I
am
putting
in
so
much...
but
I
love
the
film..
I
love
them.
