I'm Not An Item Number Person, Says Preity Zinta

Darpan News Desk, 16 Apr, 2015 04:51 PM
    Preity Zinta loves to shake a leg, but dancing to item numbers in films is not what the actress is aiming for.
     
    Asked if she would like to do another item number after "Happening" from Salman Khan-starrer "Main Aurr Mrs Khanna" (2009), Preity told IANS: "The only reason I did the last item number is because I love Salman and he is my buddy. I would do anything for him." 
     
    “Having said that, I'm not really an item number person. I'm an actor. My USP is that I can perform. I don't mind dancing. I love to dance but I'd rather come to your house and dance or go to a club and dance,” she added.
     
    But the 40-year-old all geared up for dance, dance and more dance in her new role as a judge on Star Plus' reality show "Nach Baliye 7". 
     
    She will share the judges' panel with choreographer Marzi Pestonji and author Chetan Bhagat.
     
    Celebrity couples will take to the dance floor to present innovative performances week by week to win the trophy.
