First Look: Veena Malik’s ‘The Dirty Picture’
Veena Malik, who has courted controversy right from her ‘Bigg Boss’ appearance to allegedly posing topless for a magazine cover, will be starring as Southern sex siren Silk Smitha in ‘The Dirty Picture: Silk Sakkath Hot Maga’.
Produced by Venkatappa and directed by Trishul, ‘The Dirty Picture: Silk Sakkath Hot Maga’ also stars Akshay.
Says Veena, “I am quite excited to be part of the film. As the lead heroine, I will get a lot of opportunity to perform. The director has packaged the film very well with glamour, sentiments and all other ingredients.”
Veena Malik voices support for gay marriage
Actress Veena Malik has raised eyebrows by boldly voicing her support for same-sex marriages.
“I openly support the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender) community and I don’t feel shy about doing it,” the express tribune quoted her as saying.
Giving the examples of starlets Kim Kardashian and Lady Gaga, who stand up for gay rights, Malik justified her stance.
“If US President Barack Obama and Hollywood beauties can stand up for gay marriage, why can’t every citizen support this cause,” she said.
Malik added that “every person has the right to live their life” without interference.
When Malik shared the news of her pro-LGBT stance on micro-blogging site Twitter, the more liberal members on the social media forum applauded her.
One person reacted to Malik’s statement by posting “Way to go! LGBT people are loving and caring human beings who deserve happiness, love and acceptance!”, while another wrote: “This is why I love her.” Some claimed that she was the first Pakistani celebrity to openly support gay unions.
The more conservative quarters, however, expressed their indignation by using profanities. “She is taking all the shortcuts to become famous,” read one post.

Veena Malik
Veena Malik, the actress who made her name through controversy…
Admit it girls, we all fancy our celebs. The glitz of their glamorous world attracts us – what they wear, where they shop, what they dream of, their love-interests, their favourite things – we love to get the scoop. This time around, we were lucky enough to get hold of Veena Malik, the lady who seems to personify the word supporting actress! But of late the lady has been making waves in the comedy scene with shows such as ‘Hum sab umeed se hain’. The girl has worked hard to get to the point she’s at, battled many a controversy and still came out shining! Let’s take a look at her likes and dislikes…
My biggest asset:
My family
I wish I could:
Do something to solve the problems of the people of my country.
One person I would love to dine out with:
President Musharraf
My worst nightmare:
Loosing someone close
My strength:
My confidence
My definition of love is:
Love is as important as any another thing in life generally is. A necessity I would say.
One thing I hate about myself:
There are several things I hate about myself: at times I act very impatient. Then I eat a lot and behave carelessly.
I regret:
I never regret anything as I feel that good and bad things are a part of one’s life.
I feel over cloud nine when:
When I achieve the targets that I set for my life both personally and professionally
I get dejected when I see:
The suffering of common people and young children
Something that I am strongly possessive about:
My belongings
I get turned on by:
Nice smells
When feeling low I prefer:
To meet people I admire and feel close to
The most unforgettable moment of my life was:
When I used to get trophies
What touches me the most?
Nature inspires me a lot and in human beings I adore their sincerity
If I could be another person I would like to be:
Veena Malik again
What bores me the most?
When I’m being flattered for no good reason
My message:
Live & let live
