Mallika was shooting for an item song ‘Shalu’ for ‘Bin Bulaye Baraati’ where she refused to shoot with other actors like Gulshan Grover, Om Puri and others like Rajpal Yadav, Mukesh Tiwari and Johnny Lever who were also part of the song.

One of the actors told Mid-Day, “It was shocking. We had gone for the shoot thinking we’d be filming together.

The choreographer Ganesh Acharya shook hands with us but when we went to get our make-up done, he had vamoosed. The film’s director, Chandrakant Singh took over and directed the song.”

While Ganesh confirms that he shot separately with Mallika but denies that she demanded it. “There was no such problem. Mallika was supposed to shoot alone with the rest of the actors joining her at the end of the song.”

Even Gulshan Grover shot the song separately but showed ignorance over the issue.
