Mallika Sherawat on Tom Cruise: Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat is set to appear in the upcoming reality show ‘The Traitors 2’. Just before the show’s premiere on August 13, a video clip has gone viral online. In the clip, while chatting with fellow contestants, Mallika claims that Hollywood superstar Tom Cruise has a crush on her. Not only that, but the actress also mentions that Tom Cruise sends her videos. Everyone is left stunned by her response; Abhishek Malhan stares at her in disbelief. Now, Mallika’s fans are also reacting to this.
What does Mallika say?
In the video, show participant and comedian Aditya Kulshreshtha (Kullu) asks Mallika if she has ever had a crush on anyone, or if it is always the other way around—with everyone having a crush on her. Mallika laughs and replies, “Everyone has a crush on me. Lately, even Tom Cruise has a crush on me. I’m not lying; if I had my phone with me right now, I’d show you his videos.” Hearing this, Kullu and Abhishek Malhan ask, “What kind of videos is he sending you? Is he sending Snaps?” Mallika clarifies, “No, not Snaps, but videos from when we were partying together. He is truly a wonderful person.”
Party videos and social media reactions
As soon as the clip surfaced on social media, users began reacting in various ways. One user wrote, “It might sound strange and funny, but she is telling the truth.” Meanwhile, another commented mockingly, “Lol!” “What a joke.” Another user quipped, “She has developed ‘Urvashi Rautela syndrome’.” However, some fans also came out in her support; one wrote, “I trust her; she is very real.”
Mallika was hesitant to be part of the show
Earlier, in an interview with Times Entertainment, Mallika admitted that she was initially quite conflicted about joining The Traitors. She said, “I was quite hesitant about the show at first. I didn’t want to do a reality show because, as an actor, I wasn’t interested in the genre. But my manager, Ankita, convinced me. She suggested that I at least watch the first season before deciding—if I didn’t like it, I could always say no. When I watched the first season, I really loved the concept.”
