Item numbers aren't easy: Nargis Fakhri

"Rockstar" actress Nargis Fakhri has grooved to her first item number for Shahid Kapoor-starrer "Phata Poster Nikla Hero". She says the experience made her realise that they aren't easy to do as they look on screen.

"That (the item song) was a very fun experience. It's not as easy as it looks and it takes a lot of hard work to look as glamorous. It's not what I thought it would be," the 33-year-old said here Friday at the unveiling of the cover of "Hi! Blitz" magazine featuring her.

"As much as I enjoy watching item numbers, when you are actually doing it, it's much more harder. But a good experience," she added.

"Dhating naach" is the item number which features Nargis in the same frame as Shahid.

Directed by Rajkumar Santoshi, "Phata Poster Nikla Hero" also stars Ileana D'Cruz. It releases Aug 23.
