Gorgeous Malaika Arora has turned down the offer to walk the ramp in a bikini for a pageant.

Recently dubbed as the 'sexiest mom' in Bollywood by Maxim magazine, Malaika reportedly asked for a big amount of money from the organizers of the Ms Bikini India 2007 contest, which is to be held in Goa in December.

The organizers wanted Malaika to scorch the ramp in a bikini for a part of the pageant.

Malaika told a Mumbai tabloid that the big money she asked was just a way to refuse the offer. She said she has never worn a bikini either in a film or on the catwalk, and will never do so.

However, Malaika did pose in bikini for an edition of Maxim recently.

The organizers of the pageant seem determined to have Malaika for the show. So they are now talking with the actress to either host a segment of the show or be the pageant's brand ambassador.

It remains to be seen if Malaika will give her nod.

Reports have it that some international celebrities are expected to do the catwalk for lingerie designers and brands like CK and Vanity Fair in the pageant.
