Sarika Feels There is no need to judge item girls

Yesteryears actress Sarika, who is seen performing a qawwaali Dama dam mast kalandar in upcoming film David, starring Neil Nitin Mukesh in lead role, defends the need for contemporary Bollywood films to have item numbers.

Revealing her opinion about having an item girl in a film, she says, "Who am I to have a say? No, seriously, let me tell you why exactly they are in our films: Because they work! This is an industry and we can't afford to be prudes. There is a wide spectrum of audiences out there and different types of cinema cater to different sorts of people."

And that's the reason she feels the question of judgment doesn't arise. "We shouldn't put a certain section of actors in a bracket and judge them as a good or bad influence. They are there because they are entertaining. Nobody is doing anybody a favour. It's a basic matter of choice and taste," tells Sarika.

Quizzed why exactly did she agree to an item song, Sarika avers, "I've always loved Dama dam mast kalandar and it goes back a long way. Since I got an opportunity to be associated with this number after so many years, I thought why not? Besides, there can't be a bigger reason for me to choose something than out of sheer love."

David is directed by Bejoy Nambiar, and besides Neil it stars Vikram, Vinay Virmani, Tabu, Lara Dutta andIsha Sharvani!
