Thanks to Salman Khan, Kareena Kapoor's item number in Dabangg 2 will not be a remix of an old cabaret number

Actor Salman Khan is reportedly trying his level best to ensure that Dabangg 2's item number that will feature Kareena Kapoor, is nothing like her last item number.

The actress' last item number Yeh Mera Dil Pyar Ka Deewana was for the film Don 2, opposite his rival Shah Rukh Khan.

According to a source Salman shot down the proposal of remixing an old cabaret hit like Yeh Mera Dil.

"Salman personally sat for the 'music sitting' to conceptualise the item song. He's got music directors Sajid-Wajid to compose a track that will make Kareena dance like a dream."

Confirming the news, Wajid said, "There's no charm in redoing an old song. No one appreciates the composer or the singer in these remixes. We have decided to do a completely new song."

While there are not many details on how the song will be like, Wajid revealed that the song, like Munni Badnaam Hui, will have a rustic setting. However, this time, it won't be a bar full of louts.

According to a source, "She (Kapoor) will rehearse her steps with the choreographer -- Farah Khan or Ganesh Acharya -- for at least two weeks. The rhythms are rustic but unlike like Munni or Chikni." Salman is also slated to be part of the song.
