Malaika Arora to feature in a special dance number in Vishal Bharadwaj’s Pataakha

Vishal Bharadwaj has already managed to create fireworks with the trailer of his upcoming film Pataakha that stars Sanya Malhotra, Radhika Madan, Vijay Raaz, Namit Das, Sunil Grover, Abhishek Duhan and Saanand Verma in the lead. The film is the screen adaptation of a short story written by Charan Singh Pathik titled Do Behnein. The film’s trailer has already become the talk-of-the-town with people eagerly awaiting the release of the film, now we hear that Vishal has roped in Malaika Arora for a special number which promises to be similar and maybe better and bigger than Bipasha Basu’s Beedi Jalaile and Namak Ishq Ka.

Malaika who is well-known for making any song a chartbuster with her scintillating moves and screen presence has such super hit numbers like Chaiyaan Chaiyaan, Munni Badnam Hui under her name will be grooving to Hello Hello song sung by Vishal’s wife and singer Rekha Bharadwaj.

The song is scheduled to be filmed this week and the rehearsals are already on in a Mira Road Studio.

A leading daily reported that Vishal wanted a no-holds-barred song at a village fair and Malaika was an apt choice to pull it off. The daily reported, “Malaika has the earthy sensuality needed for the song and is known to burn up the dance floor with her moves. Even though it’s a desi number, like his earlier special appearance tracks, this one too should strike a chord with everyone, and will be playing in discotheques and dandiyas soon.”

The song has been written by Gulzar and composed by Vishal. The song is choreographed by Ganesh Acharya. Malaika has not been seen in films for some time but has been a regular on TV, by judging the four seasons of the reality show India’s Got Talent and India’s Top Model.

Her last onscreen appearance was three years ago in the special dance number Fashion Khatam Mujhpe in Dolly Ki Doli which released in 2015 and was co-produced by her with ex-husband Arbaaz Khan. She also lent her star status in Pandeyji Seeti with Salman Khan and Sonakshi Sinha in Dabangg 2 which was produced and directed by Arbaaz.
