Sherlyn Chopra loves to do roles that require her to expose and has no qualms talking about her sexy image. "I like being challenged. I don’t mind being called names as long as I am not called a bimbette. A bimbette is someone who is beautiful, ravishing, attractive but without brains and I don’t want to be insulted that way," says Sherlyn.

So how does her family react to her image? "My mother doesn’t like me in a bikini. She would rather burn them all. But I feel when I have a great body and I do a lot to maintain it to look good, why should I hide it? Obviously, I want to look ravishing and hot, so why should I not wear a bikini? If my flaunting upsets people’s sentiments, I pity them. What is most important is what I think of myself."

About her experience of working in the film Red Swastik as a psychotic killer suffering from schizophrenia, Sherlyn says, "I loved the role. It is a beautifully emotional story and has many layers at the psychological level. The main protagonist is a girl who is in trouble and has faced a lot of ups and downs in life. It is inspired by Charlize Theron’s Monster, I Spit On Your Grave and Clint Eastwood’s Sudden Attack. I love Charlize in Monster but there she is ugly, whereas I use my sexuality as a weapon."
