Will PC bring back the trend of Cabaret dancing?

Priyanka Chopra is on roll with all her dancing and singing. She enthralled the audiences in her sizzling item number 'Babli Badmaash', and now she is all set to do a cabaret number in her upcoming film Gunday.

A source confirmed that Priyanka is doing cabaret number in the film. "Yes, she is doing a cabaret in 'Gunday'. No additional details are available right now," said an official from YRF.

Bollywood has its share of item numbers over the past few years. However, one who lived in the 60s and 70s cannot forget the cabaret dances of that era. Legends such as Helen Jairag Richardson, Parveen Babi, Bindu and Mumtaz had mesmerised their viewers widely. Helen's name was synonymous with cabaret. Her dance for the song Piya Tu Ab to Aaja is what brought her to fame. The audience has to wait and watch if Priyanka is going to bring the trend back in Gunday.

Priyanka has four major releases lined up - 'Zanjeer', 'Krrish 3', Sanjay Leela Bhansali's film based on Mary Kom and Gunday. Gunday is directed by Ali Abbas Zafar of Mere Brother Ki Dulhan fame. The film, produced by Aditya Chopra, stars Ranveer Singh and Arjun Kapoor. Amid the most turbulent times in the history of Kolkata, Ranveer and Arjun play thieves in the movie. They rise from being small time wagon breakers and coal thieves to becoming the biggest and most powerful black marketing mafia men.
