Pakistan, says Sherlyn

she is from Andhra Pradesh and not Pakistan.
Sherlyn is being mistaken for Pakistani actress Monalisa who is

However, she doesn't want to blame anyone for the
mix-up.
"I think there is confusion because earlier my screen name was
Mona. I realised this when a gentleman addressed me as Monalisa
at a Mumbai coffee shop where I was discussing my film 'Red
Swastik'," she told IANS.
"Now that my pictures are being captioned as Monalisa in
newspapers, I thought it is time clear the confusion," said
Sherlyn, who is half-Christian and half-Muslim with Persian
origins and a Punjabi surname.
