Sonakshi refuses to share item number with Minissha

Sonakshi Sinha's apparent refusal to share an item number in Shirish Kunder's upcoming fantasy film Joker with Minissha Lamba is becoming a hot topic of discussion in tinselville.

It has been reported that when Minissha Lamba got to know that there will be an item number choreographed on Sonakshi Sinha in the film which also stars Akshay Kumar, Minissha expressed her desire to be part of the item number. However, Sonakshi refused to share the screen space with Minissha.

Minissha has reason enough to be insecure. In the past item numbers like 'munni badnam hui' in Dabangg and 'sheila ki jawani' in Tees Maar Khan have been super hits. Going by the popularity of item numbers, we can say that almost all actresses want to do an item number.

The item number in Joker, to be choreographed by Shirish's wife Farah Khan will now have Sonakshi shake her booty. It was earlier reported that Sonakshi had no interest in doing item numbers. Wonder what happened then to change Sonakshi's mind!

If grapevine has to be believed, Shirish Kunder did not want to upset Minissha too much and so promised to make a special music video for her. However, when questioned, the director and the actress maintained that it was just a creative call that the director had to take.

Well, well.... can anybody tell us what's happening?
