When Jacqueline said it 'bothered' her to be compared to Mallika Sherawat

Jacqueline Fernandez who celebrates her birthday on August 11 has turned 38 this year. She made her acting debut in the 2009-film ‘Aladin’ and has since then established herself as a bonafide Bollywood actress. One of the films that Jacqueline made headlines for was ‘Murder 2’ alongside Emraan Hashmi. In an old interview with a portal, the actress was quizzed about getting compared to Mallika Sherawat who had grabbed many eyeballs with her portrayal of the bold character in the first ‘Murder’. Responding to the same, Jacqueline reportedly said ‘It bothers me when my role (in Murder 2) is getting compared to her (Mallika Sherawat). The stories are not the same and it doesn't make any sense to make any comparisons. On a personal level, I don't have any complaints when people compare me to her. For me, Mallika Sherawat is someone who is so real and is unafraid to be herself. She speaks her mind and in an industry which is quite fake, she is someone who is completely different. She needs to be applauded for where she is today.’ Further, when she was asked if she is trying to replace Mallika to become the next sex symbol of the industry, the ‘Kick’ actress said ‘I don't want to replace her. I am not trying to be a sex bomb or the next sexy actress on the block. I am trying to be versatile and it will reflect in the movies I'm doing or will do in future.’ Jacqueline was last seen in ‘Cirkus’.
