Bollywood films are recognized everywhere for dance numbers and these days no film is complete without what we call an item number. The same holds true for Vishal Bhardwaj‘s upcoming release Pataakha. The trailer that released last week stays true to the name of the film and is a total firecracker. Sanya Malhotra and Radhika Madan are winning it as their characters for sure. But the latest news from the film before its release is that the film will also feature an item number and the shoot for the same is said to begin this week in a studio in Mira Road.

While Sanya is known for her dancing videos, it won’t be Dangal girl that’ll be grooving to the new song Hello Hello in the movie, but our favourite Munni, Malaika Arora! If there’s anyone who can do an item number right, it’s definitely this woman. The music is composed by Vishal Bhardwaj himself and it has been choreographed by Ganesh Acharya.

Malaika has slayed in item numbers with ease and we’re sure she’s going to do the same for this desi number as well.

Talking about the dance number producer Ajay Kapoor said,

Malaika started the trend of these special songs, so when we came up with this track for Pataakha, she was the first one we thought of casting. When I approached her for the song, she was very excited and immediately agreed. We are happy to have her on board and this song is tailor-made for her.

That’s so true, Malaika is basically a trailblazer for item numbers in Bollywood. We can’t wait for this desi number!
