Move over Malaika Arora Khan, Katrina Kaif Mallika Sherawat, Bipasha Basu and Rakhi Sawant as the new breed of item girls is here to scorch the screen with their oomph quotient!
Gone are the days when item numbers and item girls were looked as inferior. Today, they are given larger than life treatment and promoted zealously to grab the attention. With changing times more and more filmmakers are choosing item numbers and item girls as modus operandi to create hype about their film. In fact, flaunting the tag of 'item girl' is the newest fad in B-town. Check out the hotties who have joined the item brigade:
Mallika Haydon: The stunning model of the Kingfisher 2012 calendar and Lisa Haydon's sister, Mallika Haydon, who makes her debut with Saif Ali Khan's AGENT VINOD, created enough buzz with her two item numbers in the film.
