Munni or Sheila?

If we look back to the year 2010, this time from musical point of view, the two most talked about songs were Munni Badnaam Hui and Sheila Ki Jawani. Both were the so-called item numbers.

"Munni" was sung by Mamta Sharma and it was featured in the super hit film Dabangg (starring Salman Khan as a main lead). Picturized on Salman´s bhabhi, popular item girl Malaika Arora Khan, the song was choreographed by none other then Farah Khan. Incidentally the same person also choreoraphed the second song - Sheila Ki Jawani, for her own film Tees Maar Khan. "Sheila", very, very much pre-hyped (and boasting of being the "new Ek Do Teen"), presented us acting-wise useless but looking-wise hot Katrina Kaif, the singer was Sunidhi Chauha. Both the songs are catchy, both are sexy. However should I choose only one, I´ll go with Munni. Why? Reason 1. - Malaika is better dancer then Katrina. Reason 2. - There is actually more dancing involved in Munni. Reason 3. - I will always prefer desi mood to western-influeced one in Indian films. Reason 4. - In Munni Salman does some unforgettable and hilarious moves in contrast to wooden Akshay Kumar in Sheila. Reason 5. - Dabang was so much better then Tees Maar Khan.

What about you? Do you want to see Munni go badnaam, or would you rather drool over Sheila´s jawani?

    Of course, I also pick "Munni"... Really, I think that TMK was ok, but Dabangg is another league, and I don't know what's so great about Sheila. I just don't like the song... I mean, it's pretty all right... but so mediocre. Munni, in comparison, is catchy and rrrrrocking!

    Nice Blog Gaja Gamini! I too would pick Munni. although I think Katrina does fine as an Item Girl (She should ONLY be an Item girl IMO) Dabangg had such a wonderful Southy feel to it, I just loved the whole thing.

    Thank you both for your votes :) And jjake also big thank you for stopping by! I agree that Kat as an item girl actually could have a future.

    Agree so much!!! I was always Team Munni! While Katrina looked good as Sheila (and yes, DEFINITELY otherwise useless) Malaika looked SMOKING and her dancing was 100x better!
