Lindsay Lohan, who is keen to put her bad girl reputation behind her, is flying to India next month to shoot a documentary highlighting the trafficking of children in Bihar.

The Mean Girls star, who has hit headlines for her stints in rehab and drink-driving arrests, has teamed up with the BBC Network for the charity work, reports said.

"I'm going to India soon, actually, before Thanksgiving. And I'm doing a documentary for the BBC Network. It all happened actually when I was in Dubai. I like to support charities. I think it's important to kind of have a voice when you can have one and make a difference," said Lohan.

"It's basically on the trafficking of children in Bihar. So it'll be starting soon. We're just trying to work out the times and the dates. I'm a little nervous, but I'm excited to do something like that," she added.
