Pooja feels movies come and go but the item numbers stay and people remember them for a long time.
"These days everyone wants to be a part of an item number because they have become popular. Item numbers have been in momentum and they are used as a very important marketing tool for a film. They are selling like hot cakes, so everybody wants to be a part of it," Pooja told IANS in a telephonic interview from Mumbai.
"Tilasmi", was offered to her before she became a part of reality show "Bigg Boss 5", a "mood lifter" for Pooja.
"I got the offer for the film before I went in the 'Bigg Boss' house in the fifth season. The cast was already finalised for the film but I was asked to go and meet the director. When Chandraji saw me, he said 'you are my item girl' and I was finalised for it.
"It's such an energetic song and is a mood lifter. The song will just excite the audience," Pooja said.
