"The whole trend has changed. I love the idea of dancing and more so in a film because it's shot so well. There is a uniqueness about the way songs are shot in films. Of course, today, the way things are perceived and the whole movement against objectifying women has led to a shift in focus, which I totally get," Malaika said, according to Pinkvilla.

She further added, "The culture of having a mandatory cameo song is dwindling and I am all for it. I support women and will do all that I can to back them. I remember there was a time when everyone wanted to jump onto that bandwagon and do a song, but I guess change is a constant everywhere. Today, when I look back, I can proudly say that I have enjoyed all my songs and will hold them close to my heart all my life."
