Mallika Sherawat escapes attack!

She may be known as having a motor mouth in public but a recent incident left even Mallika Sherawat running for cover. A group of allegedly high on alcohol sons of local influential businessmen and politicians kicked up a ruckus outside the door of her hotel room near Jaipur. Sources close to the actress say she is extremely upset since the incident and is even scared to return to the town to resume her ongoing shoot schedule.

Says an onlooker, "Everyone around was aware of Malllika's presence in the town for her film based on Bhanwari Devi. There was high security arranged for her stay in the hotel but some young guys managed to get in and started banging on her door, all the time singing lewd songs and passing crass comments."

A distressed Mallika phoned the hotel front desk and her spot boys asking them to help her. Help arrived soon after and the men were dragged out of the hotel. A friend of the actress says, "Mallika wanted to file a police complaint but later decided against it. Now she is too scared to even go back there." The actress remained unavailable for comment.
