Mallika Sherawat is surely making her presence felt in the Wild Wild West (in case you are still wondering we are referring to Hollywood darling). The actress, who is more often seen in Beverly Hills than Bandra these days, is hobnobbing with the biggest names of Hollywood.

Recently, Mallika was seen bonding with Hollywood heartthrob Johnny Depp. The duo met at legendary crooner Tom Waits’ daughter Kellisimone’s art opening in Santa Monica where Mallika was a special guest. Obviously Madame Sherawat was on top of the moon on meeting one of the world’s sexiest men. She said, “It was a great pleasure meeting one of America’s greatest actors. He’s even better looking in person and to top it all, he told me that he is really looking forward to watching the Hissss trailer. I’m sure it’ll give him sleepless nights!”

Decked up in a stylish designer black gown, Mallika particularly enjoyed the artwork of Miss Waits whose current political theme highlighted world politicians in compromising positions. Mallika’s new American film project, a romantic comedy set in the world of American politics, entitled Love, Barack has also been generating a lot of buzz.

Also seen with Miss Sherawat at the art opening was Hollywood studio director Jesse Dylan who is developing another new mainstream commercial American film for the Indian star.
