Mallika Sherawat might not be making news offline, but that doesn't mean she's sitting quiet. For a change she's busy making the right moves. And top on her priority list is Sanjay Chhel's directorial venture Maan Gaye Mughal-e-Azam which is on a roll.

Mallika plays a character from a theatre group in the movie and Sanjay being a perfectionist is making sure that Mallika gets into the nuances of theater artistes to incorporate it in her character. And that's why he recently took Mallika to the ongoing Prithvi theatre festival to have a first hand feel of the theater environment. Says Sanjay, "The story revolves around a theatre group which performs a play titled Mughal-e-Azam , which has nothing to do with the epic. The film is a complete comic-thriller. Paresh and Mallika both work in the theatre group and act in the play, whereas Rahul Bose is a CBI officer and K.K. Menon plays the role of a Ghazal singer in the film. And since all the other actors have theater background, I felt it will add on to Mallika's performance if she picks up few theatrical tricks.” Hopefully her theatrical learning will show in the film as well!
