Shakira’s coming to Bollywood



After Akon sang for Shah Rukh Khan's Ra.One, it is now the Latin American sensation Shakira's turn to rock in a Bollywood song.

The number - a dance track to be filmed on South African model Candice Boucher for the film featuring entrepreneur Sachin Joshi - will be recorded in the next couple of months.

Shakira is no stranger to India. She has performed live in Mumbai and other cities in 2007 and has repeatedly expressed a desire to be part of the Bollywood film industry.

Says a source, "Sachin Joshi, who's helming and starring in the project, is in touch with Shakira and she has agreed to sing for Salim-Sulaiman. The lyrics would be in English, but with a smattering of easy Hindi. It won't be a duet like the song Kylie Minogue sang on Anthony D'Souza's Blue. It'd be a Shakira solo dhamaka."

Composer Salim of Salim-Sulaiman confirms the news. "It would be a very sensuous cabaret kind of song."
