Mallika in an army film 'Fauj Mein Mauj'?
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,September 13 2006]
If information from a leading film database site is to be believed, Mallika Sherawat would soon be seen in a comedy called 'FAUJ MEIN MAUJ'
The film is about a gorgeous woman called Sunehri Dhanda who joins the army. The film's plot reads as follows:
"It is the year 2007 and India gets her first female Defense Minister, who declares that the all-male infantry division has to allow women into its ranks. But are there any women in the country who're crazy enough to enlist? Just one! The incredibly gorgeous and sexy Sunehri Dhanda. The infantry will never be the same again.......!"
Media had earlier speculated that 'Fauj Mein Mauj' was based on Goldie Hawn's 'Private Benjamin', but on learning that its about a woman who joins an all-male regiment, a leading news channel did an expose which claimed that it was based on Demi Moore's 'G.I. Jane'. The mystery continues to deepen as the star of the movie has clearly declared that the film is a comedy!
Apart from Mallika Sherawat, 'Fauj Mein Mauj' would star Paresh Rawal, Arbaaz Khan, Rajpal Yadav, Asrani, Lillete Dubey, Mukesh Rishi and Sharat Saxena while Pritam would compose the music. The film would be directed by Murali Nagavally who has been an Associate Director with Priyadarshan in films like 'Gardish', 'Viraasat' and 'Kabhi Na Kabhi' apart from the director's work in South.
Ravi Walia is the producer of the film who made his production debut with 'Fight Club - Members Only'. He has also been a cinematographer for films like 'Darna Zaroori Hai', 'Tathasu' and yet to be released 'Amavas'.
Interestingly, the film has a tagline of "The sexiest woman in the country joins the Army"!
