Aditi takes pot shots at Mallika

[1]

Insecurities and comparisons have been known to affect many an actor and this particular episode is no exception. It appears that Aditi Rao Hydari and Mallika Sherawat are caught in a tussle of sorts over the Murder franchise which they have both been a part of.

Aditi, who replaced Mallika, in the Murder series, switched to defensive mode by calling herself an actor of substance. “I think you should have some steel in your soul and not silicon in your breasts,” she snapped when asked if she would be able to match up to Mallika’s oomph quotient.
Murder 3 will be Aditi’s first attempt at “bold” cinema. So is it a deseperate attempt to get noticed? “When the film was offered to me, it was up to me whether or not to do it. It was like challenging the actor in me. We have sexuality in our film because it defines the nature of love. The idea wasn’t to shed clothes and do bold scenes. It’s more about our personalities and the manner in which people have been brought up,” she said. Referring to a certain “other actress” who made her sex appeal her USP, Aditi added, “Skin show can never earn you respect as an actor — it can be one aspect. I’d never restrict myself to just skin show.”
Over to you Mallika.
