Chitrangada
Singh
is
the
new
item
girl
of
Bollywood
with
her
sensuous
dance
number
'Kaafirana'
in
upcoming
film
Joker,
but
the
actress
begs
to
differ
and
says
she
is
no
where
close
to
that
title.
The
song
sees
Chitrangada
bearing
a
striking
resemblance
to
that
of
Madhuri's
look
in
the
song
'Humko
Aajkal
Hai'
from
Sailaab.
The
actress
said
she
fails
to
understand
why
she
is
so
much
in
the
spotlight
for
just
doing
a
song.
"Its
just
a
song
at
the
end
of
the
day
and
I
don't
understand
what
is
the
big
deal
about
an
item
number.
We
had
songs
in
Mughal-e-Azam
and
they
were
never
termed
as
item
songs.
You
just
remember
the
song
and
the
dance
and
it's
beautiful," Chitrangada
told
PTI.
"If
we
do
it
in
a
certain
way,
and
there
is
nothing
objectionable
about
the
lyrics
or
dance
steps.
Then
I
don't
know
why
anything
becomes
objectionable
or
has
to
be
explained,"
she
added.
The
36-year-old
actress
also
does
not
like
being
counted
in
the
league
of
actors
who
have
turned
into
item
girls.
"I
get
irritated
by
the
term
item
number
but
I
understand
that
it
is
the
way
people
understand
that
you
are
not
a
part
of
the
film
but
just
doing
a
song.
I
think
it's
about
just
tagging
the
actor.
It's
good
to
keep
changing
tags
as
an
actor,
I
have
been
tagged
before
and
now
I
have
got
another
one,"
she
said.
Choreographed
by
Farah
Khan,
the
song
is
inspired
from
Madhuri's
dance
moves
and
Chitrangada
says
she
wanted
to
bring
about
the
dancing
diva's
sensuousness
to
the
song.
"I
am
not
trying
to
copy
Madhuri,
I
don't
think
anybody
can
do
a
Madhuri,
she
is
someone
so
special
and
it
is
a
package
that
comes
rare.
We
took
the
look
that
we
wanted
from
Madhuri's
song
and
tried
to
bring
in
that
sensuousness
to
the
song
that
she
carries,"
she
said.
The
song
didn't
come
as
an
easy
task
for
Chitrangada
as
she
injured
herself
while
rehearsing
for
it,
but
she
is
thankful
that
Farah
changed
the
steps
keeping
in
mind
her
injury.
"Farah
is
known
to
be
this
strict
choreographer
but
I
escaped
her
wrath
because
I
injured
my
knee
while
I
was
rehearsing.
I
was
on
pain
killers
and
I
think
she
just
let
me
go
seeing
me
in
so
much
of
pain.
She
was
really
nice
to
me,"
she
said.
Chitrangada
will
be
next
seen
in
Sudhir
Mishra's
Inkaar,
which
is
on
sexual
exploitation
of
women
at
work
place.
"Inkaar
is
a
love
story
and
Arjun
has
done
fabulously
well.
I
have
seen
the
rough
edit
and
I
am
very
excited
about
it,"
she
said.
This
is
the
third
time
she
is
working
with
Mishra
after
her
debut
film
Hazaaron
Khwaishen
Aisi
and
Yeh
Saali
Zindagi
with
him.
