5 actresses who nailed 'item numbers' without making them vulgar

Item numbers have a certain importance in many films when it comes to attracting the audience. There was a time when people used to watch films only for the item numbers! As time passed, item numbers became even more sensuous and stimulating. The audience demanded to see more! In today's time item numbers require hot scenes and double meaning lyrics but there are a few of these songs which featured actresses who turned down the 'Sexy meter' and replaced it with glamour, elegance and beauty. Here is a list of five actresses who tried and made these songs sexy yet non-vulgar.

1. Madhuri Dixit Nene - Ghagra

This song comes from one of one of the most popular films, Yeh Jawani Hai Deewani. Madhuri Dixit is one of the most beautiful women in this world and her beauty bought a certain charm to the song. This in turn became an audience favourite.

2. Vidya Balan - Mala Jau De

This song featured in the film 'Ferarri Ki Sawari' for those of you who found this song and the dance vulgar, it is not. In fact Vidya is doing a Marathi traditional dance form called 'Lavani' and she rocked it!

3. Priyanka Chopra - Babli Badmash

This song was part of the movie 'Shootout At Wadala.' Priyanka wore leather Catwoman style suit all complete with LED lights to give us that 80's feeling. Unlike other item numbers which feature actresses and dancers with 'lesser' clothes!

4. Kareena Kapoor - Dil Mera Muft Ka

This song failed to attract a larger audience for unknown reasons. Maybe because it was a part of Agent Vinod?  Kareena looked stunning in this song!

5. Nargis Fakhri - Yaar Naa Mile

This underworld themed song called for a dark theme and fit in to the movie 'Kick' pretty nicely. Nargis looked elegant and the dance moves were not too less and not too much.

These actresses prove that you don't need to be Sexy to be attractive!
