Is Mallika Sherawat's item number Razia gundo mein phas gayi in Anees Bazmee's Thank You?
Razia has been touted as the next big thing in Bollywood after Munni Badnaam and Sheila Ki Jawani.
However, most people who have had a glimpse of the promos, which started airing last weekend, are rather disappointed with the picturisation.
Despite Mallika's presence, the song-composed by Pritam neither has Malaika's energy from the Dabangg - hit 'Munni Badnaam', nor does it have the promise of Katrina's effortless oomph from the Tees Maar Khan - anthem, 'Sheila Ki Jawani' .
The problem with Razia is that, although the song is a winner, the makers have failed to do justice to the spirit and mood of the number. It looks like any routine item number.
Half the battle is won just because of Mallika's presence. Apart from her natural sex appeal, the siren is known to generate ample hype over whatever she does.
Razia marks the return of Mallika on the silver screen after almost three years, so the expectations are high.
Razia has been sung by budding playback singer Ritu Pathak-a former Indian Idol contestant-and Master Saleem. It has been written by rising lyricist Ashish Pandit.
