Bollywood has recently discovered that a previously unmentionable body part is suddenly song-worthy and that Jheel Si Neeli Aankhen and Reshmi Zulfein are too old-school, anatomically speaking, to be waxed eloquent about on screen. Trending now in newly cheeky Bollywood is an ode to the posterior.
Tere Hans Jaisi Chaal has now transitioned to Shaking Your Bootiya on the floor, as demonstrated by the five 'oddballs' - played by Deepika Padukone, Arjun Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia, Naseeruddin Shah and Pankaj Kapur - on their journey to Finding Fanny.
Sonam Kapoor's desi version of The Princess Diaries, Khoobsurat, has her playfully mocking the discipline of the royal house she's been inserted into with Engine Ki Seeti Se Mara Bum Dole, as a shocked Prince - played by Fawad Khan - looks at her aghast.
