![]() Respected elders can't be seen dancing raunchily, and the dresses can't be too revealing, lest we offend the families. this is Mallika Sherawat’s 0.33 object number that Ganesh Acharya choreographed, and her sultry dances have made it a hit. one of the famous Bollywood object songs from the Hindi film Double Dhamaal is Jalebi Bai. this is also one of the excellent Bollywood item songs. After all, almost every hot-blooded urban male will enjoy himself in a bachelor's party."" How hot is hot? Now that these item numbers have made a foray in tellydom, do they also measure up to the oomph quotient of their filmi counterparts? Mink replies this, saying: ""I think they are hot alright! My item number, which was woven in the track during a family celebration, was sizzling enough and even the ghaghra choli that I wore in the song, was sexy and happening!"" But, Sukesh goes on to add: ""There are certain taboos, which we always keep in mind while visualising these numbers. Tanishk Bagchi has additionally redone this music from a 2018 Hindi film. The evolution of feelings had to be woven through this. In Punarvivaah, we added the item song in a bachelor's party because the protagonist, who is still in mourning, has to be shaken out of his reverie. Whether it's dance reality shows or tasks in Bigg Boss, when you add a song and dance routine to it, it jazzes up the show immediately. Sukesh Motwani, fiction head of Zee TV, admits: ""The fact is that naach gaana sells because it's an appealing audio-visual approach. But, this extra attention never hurts, where a pretty woman is prancing around you!"" Naach gaana sells! These peppy numbers also add oomph and sizzle to the TRPs. ![]() ""These item songs also focus a lot of attention on male protagonists, so I have no reason to complain! In fact, my only grouse was that when Adaa Khan tried to seduce me onscreen, I had to control my reactions because I play an impotent royal in the serial. With the government rating item songs as 'A' - adult content, they will soon disappear from TV screens.New masala According to Danish Bhat nee Adhiraj Singh of Amrit Manthan, these item songs are currying favour with the makers as well as the viewers because they add a new and interesting masala to a show. TOI gets reactions… In a recent move, the Central Board of Film Certification has sent instructions to all its regional offices and everyone else involved in certification of films to give 'A' (adult) rating to item songs. ![]() Censor Board CEO Pankaja Thakur has gone on record to say: "Item songs are essentially adult content. We ourselves do not define what an item song is, but what we mean is that all those songs, which are meant for adult consumption, either because of their lyrics or because of visuals, should be given adult certification. These songs, thus, would not be allowed to be telecast on television as only (a maximum of) 'UA' rated content is allowed on television." TOI asks if this move to filter item songs is really needed… Uncalled for Her dance numbers like Challa Valla and Parda Parda have been super-duper hits. Ask Gauahar Khan whether this move by the government will work, and she says, "First let them filter content on the news channels, which are supposed to be informative! But, all one sees is politicians dissing each other. Is this peaceful behaviour? In fact, it's disturbing to see them not put the nation first. This thought is more disturbing to the senses than any item song. And I feel this filter is totally uncalled for!" And yes, I'd like to call my songs - dance numbers as they always have taken the story forward. Vicky Donor, I'd be thrilled because they passed my film with no fuss and congratulated me for making the film. They were an intelligent panel."

The only problem I see here is the government. On one hand it works against creative liberties - eg., the Vishwaroopam case, so when it actually takes a good step like this one, people fail to see it! They look at it as another ban, which is not right." 'No sensuousness left' Saroj Khan, who's choreographed almost every top heroine in B-town, says that this move of banning item songs on the telly is good because some songs have moves that are plain vulgar! She goes on to add, "There's a limit to what you do just to get noticed! Some of our songs see heroines almost nude, and this is apparently called sexy.
