Mallika absent at Zee Cine Awards

We had told you earlier that Mallika Sherawat would be hosting a segment with Karan Johar at Zee Cine Awards held recently in Mauritius. But to our surprise the actress was not present at the show.

Well there are contradictory stories coming out from different nooks and corners of the industry. Some news says that she did not go because she was offered an economy class ticket as the remaining flight was booked and she wanted executive class tickets for herself and body guards.

It was evident from the show that it was held in tight security. So now the question arises as to why did she need her own bodyguards to fly with her. She would anyway have been safe -- or so says an organizer. She even refused to go with Shah Rukh Khan in a chartered plane, if a media report is to be believed!

But Zee is happy that the show went well, so nobody's complaining -- Mallika or no Mallika. Guess the loss was completely hers -- coz she lost an opportunity to anchor a big segment with top star anchor Karan Johar, whom the mischievous Sajid Khan actually described as a top anchor who also directs films in between!
