Some people learn the hard way and Isha Koppikar is just one of them.

The girl who revolutionised the concept of item numbers has finally realised her forte and perhaps the tricks to exploit it too.

Her latest diktat to all the producers who want her to sizzle in their films is, "Cast me in a bigger role if you want that Ommph..."

Her decision is inspired from the success of Harry Baweja 's 'Qayamat', where she portrayed a negative character and had a raunchy item number too.

Koppikar had a nightmarish experience when Sanjay Gupta refused to do an item number with her and roped in Sameera Reddy instead. The reason... sitting pretty on her success, the poor girl gained a lot of weight in all the wrong places.

That was enough to wake Isha from her slumber and voila what do we see, a new and improved Koppikar.

The girl has decided to flaunt her rejuvenated oomph and as a result, the item numbers have been added in the films like Mani Shankar's 'Rudraksh' and Pankaj Parashar 's 'Inteqaam', where she already had the full-length roles.
