Actress Mallika Sherawat says she is flooded with offers of glamorous roles in Bollywood.
Asked why is she choosy with her scripts, Mallika told IANS: "Yes, I am a little choosy. Usually the roles that I get from Bollywood are very glamorous roles. I want to do roles where I can act and I don't want to do just one song and dance."
"My character has to be different. If you are constantly being offered only glamorous roles, you will not do it. 'Dirty Politics' is a platform to show my talent," said the actress, currently busy promoting her film "Dirty Politics", which also stars Om Puri.
The "Murder" star also shared that she doesn't believe in camps.
"I don't believe in camps. All these things are not important for me. I want to be an independent woman who can take care of herself. I have never been part of any groups," said the actress who has worked with filmmakers like Anurag Basu, Mani Ratnam and Satish Kaushik.
