New Delhi: After shaking a leg with Bipasha Basu, Beijing Olympics bronze medallist boxer Vijender Singh turned a singer for another Bollywood siren Mallika Sherawat in a reality TV show.
The middle weight (75kg) pugilist, who returned to the country, after winning a bronze medal at the Asian Championships in China, recalled a meeting with Mallika on Sony TV's Dus Ka Dum hosted by Salman Khan, where he crooned for the damsel.
"She is from my state Haryana, so I sang a local folk song for her when Salman asked me and she couldn't stop laughing at that. It was fun to interact with her," Vijender said.
The duo shot for the show last month and Vijender said he was surprised by Salman's knowledge of Indian boxing.
"I was amazed that Salman knew so much about boxing and our boxers. He was very nice and we cracked a lot of jokes. Contrary to his media image, he came across as a good person," he added.
Vijender had danced with Bipasha in another reality show Nach Baliye.
Vijender would head back to Patiala in a couple of days to resume training for the September World Championships in Milan, Italy.
