Mallika Sherawat was originally born Reema Lamba. She later changed her name to distinguish herself from other actresses in Bollywood who had similar names. She chose Mallika because it means "Empress" and Sherawat because it was her mother's name.

The actress was born on October 24, 1976 in Rohtak, Haryana. While Mallika dreamed of becoming a famous Bollywood actress since she was a little girl, her life took different paths before she ultimately achieved her childhood goals.

Mallika Sherawat graduated from Delhi University with a degree in Psychology. After college she became an airhostess. It was then that she met and fell in love with Karan Singh Gill.

The two quickly married, but unfortunately the courtship just as quickly ended in divorce. It was after the divorce that Mallika Sherawat packed her bags and headed off to Mumbai. She was on a mission to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming an actress.

Mallika Sherawat starred in a slew of commercials for companies such as Santro and 7UP before making her film debut in 2002 with the release of "Jeena Sirf Mere Liye."

After this came the films "Kwashish" and "Murder." In both films Mallika Sherawat played the role of a sexy female, causing the media to nickname her "Bollywood Bombshell" and "The Sex Queen of Bollywood."

Sherawat continued to choose roles which required her to play up her status of a sex symbol. Her status as a sexy actress spread throughout India and the world. She became the first Indian actress offered to pose for Playboy; she turned it down.

Then in 2006, Mallika decided that she wanted to show the world that she was more than just a pretty face. She wanted to prove that she could be a serious actress as well. Her amazing performance in "Pyaar Ke Side Effects" won her rave reviews from critics and fans alike.

In 2007 Mallika Sherawat added yet another accomplishment to her long list of achievements; she became the highest paid actress in Bollywood history. She was paid Rs. 1.5 crores for her ten minute cameo appearance in "Aap Ka Suroor."

The sexy star has no plans of slowing down anytime soon. She is set to appear in three films this year, "Hisss," "Fauj Mein Mauj," and "Unveiled."
