Imagine Mallika Sherawat, Priyanka Chopra and Bipasha Basu as the three feisty babes kicking the butts of baddies. This desi version of Charlie’s Angels may or may not be made. But the casting is surely spot on.

No Bollywood producer has conceived this casting coup. It is rather the people on Twitter.com who have expressed their wish to see the three sultry babes as the deadly angels in a desi action flick.

Mallika, who has been tweeting regularly ever since she got her one foot in Hollywood, wrote to Priyanka: “The Twitter people want us to do Charlie’s Angels. They said Bips (Bipasha) also so we need to get her on Twitter. Gul (Panag) has a strong support too.”

Priyanka, who has more than ten thousand followers on twitter, replied: “Sounds rocking!”

Contrary to rumours Priyanka and Mallika are not vying to outdo each other on Twitter. Rather they seem to have formed a mutual admiration society and are often seen complimenting each other.

Priyanka, for instance, has wished Mallika good luck for her upcoming film Hisss, whereas the hot siren has expressed her admiration about Priyanka’s continued rise to fame in Bollywood.

Who said two actresses can’t be friends?

She has limits about exposing

Mallika Sherawat might be known for her bold style statements and her bold dressing sense. But when it came to stripping for her upcoming movie “Hisss” (pictured above), she flatly refused to go nude.

In one of the scenes, Mallika had to transform into a snake and that required her to slither and wriggle in the mud. While doing so, some certain parts of her body, including her bottom, had to be exposed.

Mallika did not want to show her bottom and hence she asked for a body double to do the scene.

Director Jennifer Lynch had to give in to Mallika’s request and agree on a body double.

“Hisss” is a story of a Naagin, played by Mallika, who sets out to find a mate with a vengeance.
