Everyone wants a 'Munni' or a 'Sheila': Malaika

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ There is war still raging between Munni and Sheila and there is no stopping either team vying for the top spot when it comes to being tagged the most popular item number of the previous year. While both the songs - Munni Badnaam and Sheila ki Jawaani have won several accolades at different award functions, this time around Munni beat Sheila hands down.
At the recently conducted public poll to vote for the 'Sensation of the Year' award organised by a TV channel, Malaika Arora Khan raced past Katrina Kaif to win the trophy for her sizzling performance in Munni Badnaam... in last year's blockbuster Dabangg.
Notorious for usually keeping the media waiting, Malaika remained true to her image as she emerged straight out of a photoshoot after almost an hour and half post the scheduled time of this interview.

Least bit unfazed about the delay, with that smouldering look on her face and that infamous pout, she settles down to have a chat with us. "It is a wonderful feeling," she says and adds, "Generally, it's for a film that a person gets an award. Now even a song has its own award. It is truly a first time!"
Malaika echoes what is on the minds of a lot of film enthusiasts these days. "Everyone wants a Munni or a Sheila these days. There is bound to be a comparison between the two and it is a wonderful feeling to win. I have created a benchmark and everyone wants to meet that. It is the greatest compliment," Malaika says.
Being a part of a National Award winning film like Dabangg and having her husband all set to direct its sequel is reason enough for Malaika to sport that perpetual smile on her face. But she admits, that working on the sequel will also bring in a lot of pressure on the Khan family. She points out, "Yes, there will be pressure. It will be a big challenge. But we will aim for higher. Arbaaz is directing the sequel. He has always wanted to direct films. It will be his maiden directorial venture and yes, we all are very excited."
Without making even a faint reference to Katrina (who happens to be bro-in-law Salman's ex), she says she is glad her Munni beat Sheila hands down, this time. "In a year, there are so many award functions. Sometimes Munni has won, and sometimes Sheila...But I am happy, this time around, it is I who won," quips Malaika with a smile that dazzles all around her.
