November 18, 2010 : Kareena Kapoor who is known as the versatile actress in Bollywood has had quite a sensational career graph as far as her choice of roles is concerned. She has hopped from one role to another often competing with her own self and out doing her own performances with a new zest of energy. However, what made her delve into the item number jig in Farhan Akhtar’s Don, with the most popular number of the retro times-Yeh Mera Dil?
Next, we have Aishwarya Rai Bachchan who is scheduled to showcase a hot number in Guzaarish albeit fully clad in retro style gown and accessories, but despite that her dance moves are very luring, going by the promos of the film.
Katrina Kaif, too, is to be seen in an item number in the soon to be released Tees Maar Khan, where she is going to be shown in a beautiful satin white bed sheet looking as pristine as ever!
Well perhaps the fact that gone are the times when top actresses never dared to touch these item numbers and saved it for the side actresses to perform on them.
The fact that a sexy image was something which only the supporting actresses had was a major driving force in keeping leading actresses away from these hot item numbers.
Now modern thought processes and positive mind sets have changed all that. Today’s actresses have to perform dramatic scenes as well as dance to sexy tunes to lure the top male protagonist as well as the audience. Well the change is certainly welcome and who’s complaining? No one- the male protagonists are having a blast, the audiences are pleased, the film makers are pleased with the mullah filling up their pockets- a total win- win situation!
