Every leading man in her films can tell you, there are certain 'Side Effects' of loving Mallika Sherawat on screen but it seems that doesn't scare Salman Khan from trying her luck with the sultry siren.

The Bollywood hunk is nodded to play her personal tutor in producer Ravi Walia's film- 'Fauj Mein Mauj'.

According to buzz, the film is inspired by the 1980-Howard Zieff directed comedy titled 'Private Benjamin', which had Goldie Hwan in the lead role.

'Private Benjamin' is all about a sheltered high society young woman who, on a whim, decides to join the army when her husband dies on their wedding night. She finds herself in a more difficult situation than she ever expected when her superior makes sexual advances.

The production company is now looking for someone to play the twist in this love triangle, Mallika's husband.

Early indications suggest that Akshay Kumar is being touted for the short but pivotal part, mirroring comedy scenes between him and Salman similar to Mujhse Shaadi Karogi.

Mallika who has been avoiding skin flicks for some time now has agreed to be part of the project due to its star cast. In case you want to catch her plain Jane image go for PNC's Pyar Ke Side Effects where Sophie Chowdhury is providing all the glamour quotient instead.
