Mallika brunches with Yanni, Dylan!

After her historic recognition at Los Angeles City Hall, the first of its kind ever bestowed upon an Indian actor by Hollywood, Mallika Sherawat was hosted for brunch at a downtown eatery accompanied by 25 guests.

A source present at the brunch reveals that Mallika sat between studio film director Jesse Dylan (son of legendary musician Bob Dylan) and world famous music composer Yanni.

Overheard was discussion of Mallika's next few American film projects of which our source says Mr. Dylan seemed to be involved. Mr. Dylan directed the Will Ferrell film "Kicking and Screaming" and "American Wedding" for Universal Studios, among others. Also mentioned was music for "Hisss", currently in post-production at a Hollywood facility. Yanni was heard offering to provide his music for the highly-anticipated film.

Some invited guests and friends of Miss Sherawat who were unable to attend include Warner Bros. studio film director Jay Chandrashakur and the 'CEO of HipHop" Russell Simmons, both also rumored to be in talks with the Indian star on upcoming projects.

‘This song is for Mallika Sherawat. One of a kind’

Says New Age musician Yanni in front of over 7,000 fans

For the first time in his long career, world famous New Age composer Yanni dedicated his song "Changes" at his sold out Los Angeles concert “Yanni Voices” to Mallika Sherawat!

As it was reported just days ago (and as Mallika has been commenting about on her Twitter page @MallikaLA), Mallika met Oscar and Grammy winner Ric Wake and Yanni at famed LA eatery, The Ivy, while having dinner with the producers of her upcoming film “Hisss”, which Mallika describes as the world's first "female empowerment superhero snake goddess horror film."

"I haven't been to a concert in a long time, but who could resist such a monumental honour," Mallika was quoted as saying by an inside source. "The show was incredible. Yanni is a genuine artiste."

At the concert, during a jumbo video screen sequence of images from Yanni's legendary performance at India's Taj Mahal, Yanni took to the mic and made an impressive dedication to the star, in front of over 7,000 fans, saying, "This song is for Mallika Sherawat. One of a kind."

Sheeraz Hasan, founder of Hollywood.TV, says, "Since Mallika came to Los Angeles, she's been quite a sensation. This kind of attention hasn't been seen for a long time in Hollywood. Grown men have become boys around Mallika. Established, well-to-do industry players have become desperate to spend time with her. She's the new "It Girl" in town."

Mallika is in Hollywood during the post-production of “Hisss” and according to her @MallikaLA Twitter page, has just signed another American film for the end of summer.
