PIX: The HOTTEST Item Songs of 2014

Last updated on: December 29, 2014 11:36 IST

Here's what Sunny Leone has in common with Deepika Padukone!

Bollywood’s trend of sizzling item numbers continues to flourish.

Although a rather ho-hum year on the front, 2014 saw several stars endeavouring to impress armed with a red-hot chartbuster and the genre’s patent jhatkas.

On that note, let’s look at 10 of the HOTTEST item songs this year.

 

Pink Lips, Hate Story 2

Sunne Leone in Hate Story 2

Bollywood bombshell Sunny Leone is, as they saying goes, too hot to handle flaunting her pouty Pink Lips and, um, more in an otherwise snooze fest of a vendetta saga, Hate Story 2.

 

Devil/Yaar Na Miley, Kick

Nargis Fakhri and Salman Khan in Kick

Salman Khan and Nargis Fakhri get up, close and personal to generate smouldering chemistry to blend against the catchy vibe of Yo Yo Honey Singh’s Yaar Na Miley.

 

Lovely, Happy New Year

Deepika Padukone in Happy New Year

Lovely lacks the rhythm of Sheila Ki Jawani but director Farah Khan pulls out all stops to ensure Deepika Padukone’s hip-shaking cabaret pays a scorching tribute to Madhuri Dixit’s Mohini.

 

Asalaam-E-Ishqum, Gunday

Priyanka Chopra in Gunday

Last year Priyanka Chopra dominated the scene with her dance numbers in Goliyon Ki Raasleela: Ram Leela, Zanjeer and Shootout at Wadala.

Even if 2014 wasn’t as prolific, a bootylicious PC compensated with her burlesque romp for Gunday’s Asalaam E Ishqum.

 

Awari, Ek Villain

Prachi Desai in Ek Villain

Prachi Desai shed her girl-next-door image to grab attention in a sensual avatar against the melancholic beats of Ek Villain’s dance bar melody, Awari.

 

Dance Basanti, Ungli

Shraddha Kapoor in Ungli

Shraddha Kapoor showed there’s more to her than starry-eyed, gullible characters with her itsy-bitsy costumes, jazzy thumkas and ‘hanky panky’ nakhras in and as Dance Basanti.

 

Aata Majhi Satakli, Singham Returns

Ajay Devgn and Kareena Kapoor in Singham

Ajay Devgn’s popular catchphrase in Marathi Aata Majhi Satakli took the shape of a full-fledged item number filmed on the star, his navari-clad leading lady Kareena Kapoor, composer Yo Yo Honey Singh and a whole band of precocious kids frantically chanting Mala raag yeto. And, what’s more, found takers.

 

Johnny Johnny, Entertainment

Akshay Kumar and Tamannah in Entertainment

A carefree Akshay Kumar recreates the energy of the so-silly-but-hooking Aunty Police Bula Legi with Sachin-Jigar’s boozy version of the kiddie nursery rhyme accompanied by a sultry Tammanah.

 

Baby Doll, Ragini MMS 2

Sunny Leone in Ragini MMS 2

 

Sunny Leone scores yet again with her super sexy turn in Ragini MMS sequel’s addictive dance ditty, Baby Doll. No wonder the sleazy horror struck gold at the box office.

 

Engine Ki Ceeti, Khubsoorat

Sonam Kapoor in Khoobsurat

 

Trust Sonam Kapoor to have her own unique take on item songs too. The fashionista, clad in contrasting tank and jammies, furiously shakes butt for Khubsoorat’s naughty but peppy offering, Engine ki ceeti.
