There was considerable debate about who would do the Munni act in the Tamil version of the second biggest Bollywood blockbuster ever, Dabangg. Though names like Katrina Kaif, Bipasha Basu and Vidya Balan did pop up, finally the woman who would gyrate to the frenzied song is Mallika Sherawat.

Confirming the news, Simbu said, “It’s true that Mallika Sherawat has confirmed to do the number.” The Tamil actor added, “We were in talks with Katrina Kaif and Vidya Balan to do the song. Though both of them were interested, they couldn’t do it due to clash of dates. The makers had approached Mallika and she will dance for it.” Mallika Sherawat’s last outing in Kollywood was in Kamal Haasan’s Dasavatharam.

The buzz in Kollywood ie, The Tamil film industry is that the hottie has been paid a bomb to do the song. When we quizzed Simbu about it, he said, “I’m not sure about the financial part of it.” It is believed that the South Indian film industry is trying its best to outdo the Hindi version with more funky music and quirky choreography.
