After meddling with TV for many years Masumi Makhija has finally found her sugar-daddy in Bollywood - Mahesh Manjrekar.

The model-turned-actress who made her debut in a forgettable like Chupk Se is playing temptress Padmashree in Manjrekar's Padmashree Laloo Prasad Yadav.

According to sources Makhija is not leaving any stone unturned this time to make an 'impact' in her new movie.

So is she going Mallika way?

"Certainly not. Exposing on screen depends on so many factors. I will have to see the script, the cast and the extent of exposure required before I can decide one way or the other. In my film I play a modern, city girl and my dress, hairdo and look has been designed accordingly. It may therefore seem that I am doing a lot of 'hot' stuff," she clarifies.

Masumi plays the central character in the film.
