Move over Chikni Chameli, the picture just got a little more dirty for Bollywood’s item scene.
Vidya Balan is now all set to make her debut as an item girl.
The talented actress, who rocked in last year’s The Dirty Picture, will shake her booty in Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s latest production, Ferrari Ki Sawaari, slated to release on April 27.
Vidya reportedly agreed to do her debut item dance because of the producer. Chopra after all was the man who gave her a break as a lead actress in the 2005 hit, Parineeta
Ferrari Ki Sawaari was launched and Chopra wanted to release the film last year but the film has been delayed owing to various reasons.
‘The buzz is that an item number by Vidya will work wonders for the film, considering that her acting and dances in The Dirty Picture have catapulted her to the top league,’ a source said.
Ferrari Ki Sawaari is a comedy drama that stars Sharman Joshi and Boman Irani and the film is directed by debutant Rajesh Mapuskar.
Earlier reports suggested that Chopra had roped in close friend and Munna Bhai maker Rajkumar Hirani to tweak the script, which he originally wrote along with Abbas Tyrewala.
Chopra launched the first look of the film recently. While the dance in Ferrari Ki Sawaari marks Vidya’s debut as a Bollywood item girl, she did a special dance number in Santosh Sivan’s Malayalam historical fantasy, Urumi, last year.
Many feel if the film is a success it could change Sharman’s box-office fortunes considering most of his hits have been multistarrers.
Sharman has been seen in hits such as 3 Idiots, Rang De Basanti and Golmaal, but success as a solo hero has eluded him so far. For Vidya, the item grind will be a totally new experience considering she was banking rather heavily on the image of a demure Indian beauty till The Dirty Picture happened.
Riding the consecutive success of The Dirty Picture, No One Killed Jessica and Paa, Vidya will next be seen in Sujoy Ghosh’s Kahaani.
