During the Cannes Film Festival celebrity party, Mallika and Hollywood actor Antonio Banderas were seen dancing together. On the issue, Mallika said, “I don't know why (so much mileage) and I really don't want to comment on that.”
With regards to fashion, Mallika feels her choices have been bold because that is her approach towards life.
“My fashion choices have been bold because that is my mindset.
I like to push new boundaries in all aspects, be it cinema, fashion or red carpet events. In India I am criticised for the kind of clothes I wear but abroad I am not,” she said.
