Kareena dances only for Salman

MUMBAI, June 10 -- Her last item song may have been the popular 'Marjani marjani' in Billu (2009), but Kareena Kapoor has a series of hit songs to her credit, the latest one being 'Chammak challo' from RA.One (2011). Now, Kareena, who recently shot for the song 'Halkat jawani' in Madhur Bhandarkar's Heroine, will do no more item tracks... unless they're for her own film.

But what about the number she is doing for directorproducer Arbaaz Khan's Dabangg 2? The actor is believed to have agreed to do it only because of Salman Khan. A source close to the actor says, "Kareena and Salman share a great rapport and she really respects him. That's the only reason she agreed to do this song."

The source adds, "Kareena is currently shooting for 'Halkat jawani'. It is a raunchy, masala song. After that she will start shooting the Dabangg 2 song, for which she will don a western avatar. It is going to be scintillating." Interestingly, this song composed by Sajid-Wajid will have no resemblance to the iconic 'Munni badnaam hui'.

Despite being the first choice for most item songs, Kareena doesn't want to do such numbers anymore. The insider says, "She is in no rush to do more item numbers. She wants to concentrate on her films."

Arbaaz Khan is in Dubai and remained unavailable for comments.
