Mallika Sherawat has been offering Kangna Ranaut advice on how to enter Hollywood. The sex siren treats Kangs like a younger sister.
Says a source close to Mallika, "Kangna is curious about Hollywood and keeps asking the older actress about her experiences.
She has even promised to help Kangs with her Hollywood contacts. She feels that the more Indian actresses come to Hollywood, the merrier it is. Mallika feels Kangna can try her luck, too, and giving her advice."
Both the actresses feature together in Double Dhamaal. As reported in September last year Mallika had avoided co-star Kangna's overtures during the first schedule of Double Dhamaal making their co-stars Sanjay Dutt, Ritiesh Deshmukh and Arshad Warsi uncomfortable. But this catfight ended soon.
Adds the source, "Initially, Kangna thought Mallika behaved like a diva, while MS couldn't understand why KR was so friendly with the guys. But Kangs has always been friendly with all her co-stars from Emraan Hashmi to Hrithik Roshan, Arshad, Ritiesh and Sanju whereas Mallika prefers to keep to herself while shooting."
Reveals the source, "It was during the second schedule that the two became good friends with Mallika even posting pictures of Kangna and her to disprove the theory that she and Kangs didn't get along." The dosti doesn't end there. "One of Kangna's first invites for her birthday party went to Mallika," adds the source.
The Other Side
A source close to Kangna says, "Though Kangna is fond of Mallika, she has never spoken to her about Hollywood or asked her for help on anything. Kangna is an independent person who has achieved success on her own terms and she would like to keep it like that."
