As we all know, the music video for ‘Jalebi Baby’ by singer Tesher was a huge hit and I’ll admit that I absolutely loved its desi vibes. However, I wanted Mallika Sherawat aka the OG Jalebi Baai aka to feature in the music video and my dream would have come true. In an appearance on Mashable India’s Bombay Journey, Mallika Sherawat revealed that she said no to Tesher when he called to ask her to feature in the ‘Jalebi Baby’ music video. She said, “They called me and asked me if I can do this song. Mujhe laga kaun faltu hai. So I told them, don’t call and disturb me, get lost. I cut the call then.”
