Mallika
Sherawat
may
be
missing
in
action
on
the
Bollywood
front
but
she
is
surely
making
a
lot
of
heads
turn
in
the
West.
While
her
immediate
next
release
is
Hissss
where
she
plays
a
snake-woman,
Mallika
would
also
be
seen
in
the
political
comedy
Love,
Barack
alongside
side
Laz
Alonso.
The
first
look
poster
of
Love,Barack
was
unveiled
at
Cannes
Film
Festival
yesterday
and
going
by
the
looks
of
it,
this
one
indeed
promises
a
lot
of
naughty
fun.
In
the
film
directed
by
American
filmmaker
Doug
McHenry,
Mallika
plays
Aretha
Gupta,
a
devoted
local
Obama
volunteer
coordinator.
A
month
before
the
election
day,
Democrat
Aretha
unexpectedly
falls
for
her
Republican
counterpart
(Alonso),
a
handsome,
dynamic
African-American
working
for
the
local
McCain
office.
Well
going
by
the
first
look
poster,
the
film
will
surely
have
some
sizzling
chemistry
between
Madame
Sherawat
and
Alonso.
What
say?
