Sources have it that Malaika asked for a big amount of money from the organizers of the event, which is to be held in Goa in December. Later, Malaika told a Mumbai tabloid that the big money she asked was just a way to refuse the offer. She said she has never worn a bikini either in a film or on the catwalk, and will never do so.
The organizers of the pageant seem very keen to have Malaika for the show. So they are now talking with the actress to either host a segment of the show or be the pageant’s brand ambassador.
