In an interview with Mashable India, Mallika recalled the time when she auditioned for The Myth.

So all these actresses jo chui mui bann ke kehti hain ‘hum toh kabhi audition nahi karti’ woh sab jhooth bol rahi hain (So all these female actors who claim that they never went for the audition are lying). I have seen their auditions. Jackie showed me their audition tapes. They loved me. They loved my fitness because I do a lot of yoga. I have a flexible body.”
Talking about Jackie Chan, she said, “He is a great guy. Very wonderful, helpful. He opened doors for me in Hollywood. He really supported me. When I got Myth, I decided to do all the action for the film but that was the worst decision of my life.”
