Reddit and X have been buzzing with Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat's old interview clips. Redditors and X users have been playing guessing games after Mallika Sherawat in the interview revealed that one of the major actors in Bollywood used to knock at her doors at midnight when she was doing a comedy film. In the viral video, Mallika Sherawat can be heard saying, "I was shooting for a very big film in Dubai. It was a multi starcast film that went on to become a super hit. I did a comedy role in that movie. The hero of that film used to knock at hotel room's door at 12 in the night. The knock was like he will break the door. Because he wanted to come inside my bedroom. I was like nom it's not gonna happen. After this that hero never work with me."
Interestingly, Mallika Sherawat's interview video is shared by an X user with the claims that the movie was Welcome that was being shot in Dubai and the actor who did it was none other than Akshay Kumar.
However, the claims made by the social media user are without any proof. Also, Mallika Sherawat worked with Akshay Kumar after the movie Welcome. After Welcome, Mallika worked with Akshay Kumar in the movie Thankyou which was released in 2011. Thankyou was also a comedy movie. Hence, saying that Akshay Kumar was the actor who pursued Mallika Sherawat without any evidence or facts is totally misleading.
It is pertinent to mention here that the original interview of Mallika Sherawat was aired in 2022 at Etimes.
Many fans also pointed out the same fact. A user wrote, "Its not akshay as she worked with him in thankyou in 2011."
Another user wrote, "But he sleeps early.."
One more user wrote, "But Akshay worked with her in Thank You (2011) after Welcome. They shot a song together in that film"
The movie Welcome was indeed shot in Dubai. It was released in 2007 and it featured actors like Akshay Kumar, Anil Kapoor, Nana Patekar, Mallika Sherawatm Paresh Rawal, etc. However, there is no evidence or even if you follow the statement of Mallika point out to Akshay Kumar.
