Sophie
Choudry
is
going
places!
The
actress
has
just
replaced
Malaika
Arora
Khan
and
Amrita
Arora
for
an
item
number
in
Sanjay
Gadhvi's
Kidnap.
Sophie
said,
"Sanjay
Gadhvi
and
I
have
been
good
friends!
He
had
spoken
to
me
about
this
song
three
weeks
ago.
I
usually
have
refrained
from
doing
item
numbers
but
I
could
not
say
no
to
this
one
because
it
is
a
crucial
part
of
the
film.
The
song
appears
during
the
pre-climax
of
the
film.
It
is
great
being
a
part
of
a
film
in
such
big
way.
Also
it
involved
Sanjay
Dutt
and
I'd
do
anything
for
a
respected
and
adored
actor
like
him."
When
asked
about
she
replacing
Malaika
and
Amrita
Sophie
replied,
"I
am
doing
the
song
now
and
that
is
a
fact!
I
am
not
aware
that
Malaika
and
Amrita
were
to
do
it.
I
was
not
in
country
when
the
news
that
Malaika
and
Amrita
were
to
do
the
number
splashed
out
in
the
media.
I
don't
even
care
about
it."
Sanjay
Gadhvi
said
that
Sophie
was
apt
for
the
song.
"The
personality
that
Sophie
has
is
in
sync
with
the
look
and
the
song.
I
could
not
have
wanted
anybody
else
for
this
number."
Sophie
had
won
accolades
and
applause
for
her
number
In
Pyar
Ke
Side
Effects
earlier.
