New Delhi: They paid between Rs 5,000 and Rs 9,000 to get a glimpse of Mallika Sherawat, but for those who partied at Mumbai's J W Marriott hotel on New Year's eve, the money was hardly worth it.
Though Mallika's 45-minute New Year performance at the hotel's Jewel 2007 extravaganza had been much-hyped, the experience was not as hot as those who attended it thought it would be.
A flat 15 minute performance was all the expectant crowd got, all through which the Bollywood actress remained distracted and ultimately uncoordinated with the rest of the dance troupe.
Apparently, Mallika - who had struck of deal of over Rs 50 lakh for a 45 minute dance performance - was miffed at the presence of TV cameras in the hotel's hall.
The usually media-savvy actress had allegedly agreed to the performance only on the condition that TV crews would not be allowed inside and no portion of her performance would be telecast.
However, the agreement was clearly broken and now she is demanding additional compensation from the hotel, to the tune Rs 15 lakh - failing which she will take the hotel to court for violating the agreement.
All in all, the New Year revelry turned into a rivalry between Mallika and the hotel, a regular bash-ing affair.
