Sherlyn's gift to Hema Malini

After the success of her first music album Outrageous, Bollywood actress Sherlyn Chopra is all set to hit the music charts with her next album Dard-e-Sherlyn. "This tim e, it's a Bollywood remix. I have written and composed the English track in the song. The video is choreographed by Remo," she informs. It seems that the video is a tribute to Hema Malini. "Yes, but it was not intentional. I mean, I wanted a few really gripping lines which would speak about my unspoken 'dard'. The album is in English, but I have used a few lines from Hemaji's 'dard' song from the film Dus Numbri, which was sung by Asha Bhonsle. Keeping Hemaji's sensuality in mind, I have tried to do something Indian in this music video," adds Sherlyn. So is this a tribute? "Not really. It's a small token of appreciation for the Dreamgirl," she says with a mischieveous smile.

Considering the 'outrageous' image she has currently, she should have opted for someone sensuous like Rekha or Parveen Babi. "My 'dard' song has been inspired by her 'dard' song from Dus Numbari. With due respect to Rekhaji and late Parveen Babi, I would like to say that Hemaji's sensuality has never ceased to fascinate me," she adds. So, did she show the video to Hema? "Not yet," she smiles. But wouldn't Hema be upset with her, considering the fact that the video is hot. "Wearing a diamond studded bikini top has zero connection with the goodness of one's character," she says in a child like tone.
