There was a
time when item songs were not considered good for top heroines. But for Bipasha
Basu (and many other A-grade actresses), item numbers have become a point of
prestige. The demand for the songs is constantly on the rise and so is the
amount demanded. For the latest records, the dusky Bengali beauty is demanding
a whopping sum of Rs. 1 crore for one such item number.
Bipasha has
demanded the sum for the Telugu version of the item song Munni Badnaam Hui.
A Telugu remake of the Hindi film, Dabangg is shortly to be remade. The makers
are looking an actress who will play Malaika Arora Khan – the original Munni in
the original song.
The producers
are ready to give her Rs. 50 lakhs for the song. However, she is asking twice
that amount. Though the film makers have not totally neglected such a huge
demand from Bipasha, they are trying to find a solution.
Keep your
fingers crossed to know more about the developments!
